Best Public Schools in Zip Code 96021


Summary:

The 96021 zip code area of Corning, California is home to 11 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools. The data reveals stark differences in academic performance across these schools, with some standouts like Richfield Elementary and Kirkwood Elementary consistently outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests. In contrast, schools like Rancho Tehama Elementary and Centennial Continuation High struggle with very low proficiency rates.

The data also highlights challenges faced by the district's continuation and alternative schools, such as low graduation rates and high chronic absenteeism. For example, Corning Independent Study, a continuation high school, has relatively high graduation rates and low chronic absenteeism compared to the other high schools in the area. Addressing the unique needs of these student populations should be a priority for the Corning Union High, Corning Union Elementary, Richfield Elementary, and Kirkwood Elementary districts.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch participation across the district suggest that many students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, which likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by some schools. By closely examining the performance and demographic data, the district can identify targeted strategies to support all students and work towards more equitable educational outcomes.
