District-Level NCES Analysis
Wright Elementary operates 3 public schools serving 1,279 students, placing it among the smallest districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 3 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 Sonoma County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $19,491 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1880 California districts by per-pupil spending. See how California compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 47.8% local, 42.8% state, and 9.4% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 54/100, ranked #651 of 1526 in California against a state average of 50, in line with the typical spread seen across the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 403:1 student-counselor ratio, well above the ASCA benchmark though still under the roughly 408:1 national average, and 51.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 64.8% Hispanic or Latino, 15.2% White, 9.2% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is J. X. Wilson Elementary, with a diversity index of 58.7/100.
Its largest campus is Wright Charter, enrolling 456 students (38% of the district's total enrollment).
Wright Charter accounts for 35.7% of all Wright Elementary student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Wright Elementary-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
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.
Wright Elementary student-counselor ratio is 403:1 — 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.
Wright Elementary chronic absenteeism rate is 51.4% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
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 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.
