Ivanhoe Elementary

Summary:

Ivanhoe Elementary is a public elementary school located in Ivanhoe, CA, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 535 students. It is part of the Visalia Unified School District, which is ranked 894 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger.

Ivanhoe Elementary has faced significant challenges in recent years, with a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, from 10.3% in 2017-2018 to 34.3% in 2021-2022. The school also consistently underperforms the district and state averages in Smarter Balanced Assessments for English Language Arts and Mathematics, with only 28.43% of Ivanhoe students proficient or better in ELA End-of-Course, compared to 43.55% for the district and 47.04% for the state. In Mathematics, Ivanhoe's proficiency rate was 29.32% for End-of-Course, while the district was at 27.98% and the state at 35.54%. Additionally, the school's performance in Science (CAST) is significantly lower than the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools in the Visalia Unified School District, such as Riverway Elementary, Mineral King Elementary, and Elbow Creek Elementary, Ivanhoe Elementary is one of the lower-performing schools in the district. The school's high percentage of students from low-income families, ranging from 87.56% to 90.21% in recent years, suggests that socioeconomic factors may be playing a role in the school's academic outcomes. Addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and support could be crucial in improving Ivanhoe Elementary's overall performance and outcomes for its students.

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.
