Johnson Park Elementary faces significant challenges, with chronic absenteeism rates rising from 8.1% in 2018-2019 to 27.8% in 2022-2023, well above the district and state averages. Academically, the school consistently underperforms the district and state in Smarter Balanced Assessments, with only 26.78% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and 13.73% to 20.69% proficient in Mathematics in 2023-2024. The school's performance varies across student subgroups, with White and Male students ranking in the bottom 10-20% of California elementary schools. As a result, Johnson Park Elementary's statewide ranking has declined from 1201 out of 1417 in 2020-2021 to 4380 out of 5862 in 2023-2024, with a consistent 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Compared to nearby schools within the Marysville Joint Unified District, such as Covillaud Elementary and Edgewater Elementary, Johnson Park Elementary lags behind in academic performance and attendance. When compared to schools in other districts, such as Rio Del Oro Elementary in the Plumas Lake Elementary District, the differences are even more pronounced. The high concentration of economically disadvantaged students at Johnson Park Elementary, with 80% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and the relatively high student-teacher ratio may contribute to the school's challenges.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
