Average teacher compensation clocks in at $65,214 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts.

a 392:1 student-counselor ratio, above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 8.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 63.3% White, 33.7% Hispanic or Latino, 0.5% African American across the district's schools.

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Lake 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.

Lake Elementary student-counselor ratio is 392:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

Lake Elementary chronic absenteeism rate is 8.7% — 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.
