District-Level NCES Analysis
Bayshore Elementary operates 1 public schools serving 322 students, placing it among the smallest districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 elementary schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in San Mateo County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,731 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1862 California districts by per-pupil spending. See how California compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 35.4% local, 57.3% state, and 7.3% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 65/100, ranked #393 of 1517 in California against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 342:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 10.2% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 46.8% Hispanic or Latino, 29.5% Asian, 6.7% White across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Bayshore, enrolling 342 students (100% of the district's total enrollment).
Bayshore accounts for 100.0% of all Bayshore Elementary student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Bayshore Elementary a distant remainder — means Bayshore Elementary-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Bayshore Elementary student-counselor ratio is 342:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Bayshore Elementary is typically wider than the Bayshore Elementary-aggregate figure suggests.
Bayshore Elementary chronic absenteeism rate is 10.2% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
