Clement Middle faces several challenges, including lower test scores compared to the district and state averages, a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, and significant performance disparities across different student subgroups. For example, the school's end-of-course proficiency rate in English Language Arts was 48.14%, compared to 50.39% for Redlands Unified and 47.04% for California. In Mathematics, the proficiency rate was 30.24% at Clement Middle, compared to 37.14% for Redlands Unified and 35.54% for California. Additionally, Clement Middle's chronic absenteeism rate has risen from 16.0% in 2018-2019 to 27.6% in 2022-2023, significantly higher than nearby Beattie Middle (19.0%) and Cope Middle (26.4%).

The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Clement Middle ranking 315 out of 741 California middle schools for Asian students, 216 out of 626 for African American students, and 893 out of 2,383 for Hispanic students in English Language Arts. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 74.69% to 79.6% over the past few years, may be a contributing factor to its lower performance compared to nearby schools. Addressing these challenges and learning from the successes of neighboring schools could help Clement Middle improve its educational outcomes and better serve its diverse student population.

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.
