At the top of the pack is Hart-Ransom Elementary, which ranks in the top 30% of California elementary schools and boasts strong test scores across English Language Arts, Math, and Science. The Paradise Charter and Shiloh Charter schools also perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 25% and 50% of California elementary schools, respectively. In contrast, schools like Bret Harte Elementary, Fairview Elementary, and Westport Elementary struggle with some of the lowest test scores in the area.
The data also reveals high rates of chronic absenteeism across many of the schools, ranging from 0.7% at Hart-Ransom Charter to 30.7% at Evelyn Hanshaw Middle.
