District-Level NCES Analysis
Romoland Elementary operates 6 public schools serving 4,545 students, placing it among the smallest districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 elementary, 1 middle 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 Riverside County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $15,316 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 1880 California districts by per-pupil spending. See how California compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 26.4% local, 62.7% state, and 10.8% 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 39/100, ranked #1024 of 1526 in California against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 782.9:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 37.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 73.8% Hispanic or Latino, 6.2% African American, 4.3% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Mesa View Elementary, with a diversity index of 61.6/100.
Its largest campus is Ethan a Chase Middle, enrolling 1,447 students (30% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Hillside Innovation Academy, at 155 students, a 9x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Ethan a Chase Middle accounts for 30.2% of all Romoland Elementary student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Romoland Elementary-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: middle. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Romoland Elementary school enrollment varies 9.3× across entities
Romoland Elementary school enrollment ranges from 155 students (lowest) to 1,447 students (highest), a spread of 1,292 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Romoland Elementary student-counselor ratio is 783:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Romoland Elementary chronic absenteeism rate is 37.5% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
