Based on the available data, this school appears to be struggling academically, with consistently low test scores and a high chronic absenteeism rate that are well below state averages.

The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 50.3% is a major concern, as it suggests that a significant portion of the student population is missing a substantial amount of instructional time, which is likely a contributing factor to the school's low academic performance. Additionally, the school's spending per student of $8,249 (2018-2019) is relatively low compared to the state average, which may be a factor in the school's academic struggles.
