Summary:
The 92249 zip code in California is home to two schools: Dogwood Elementary and Heber Middle School, both of which serve a predominantly low-income student population. While the schools have some areas of strength, they also face challenges in terms of academic performance and attendance rates.
Dogwood Elementary has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.9%, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, while others are below. In contrast, Heber Middle School has a lower chronic absenteeism rate of 14.4%, which is better than the state average, but its overall academic performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST (California Science Test) is generally below the state average.
Both Dogwood Elementary and Heber Middle School are rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating that there is room for improvement in the overall quality of education provided at these schools. The high percentage of students (over 69%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at both schools suggests that these institutions serve a predominantly low-income student population, which may contribute to the challenges they face in terms of academic performance and attendance.
