Barstow Intermediate: The state doesn't publish enough data to score this school fairly.

Barstow Intermediate is an elementary school in Barstow. The state doesn't publish enough data to score it fairly — so we won't. Here's what we can show.

No Scope Score available

California doesn't publicly report per-grade test results when fewer than 11 students are tested in a grade — a privacy protection for small schools. We can't compute a Scope Score without that data.

Worth a school visit

With little published data, a visit does the heavy lifting: ask about class sizes, teacher tenure, and where last year's students went next.

  • Ask about typical class sizes and the student-teacher ratio.
  • Ask how long teachers have stayed at the school.
  • Ask where recent graduates or transfers went next.
  • Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom, and watch how a lesson actually runs.

What gets spent here

Per-pupil spendingPer-pupil spending: $12,180, CA average $14,815$12,180 · spent at this school

These measure different things: this figure is spending attributed to this campus, while district-wide figures also include central administration, districtwide programs, and the state's pension contributions made on the district's behalf — costs that never get assigned to a single school. The district number runs higher at nearly every school, not just this one.

Federal share$529 per student

$529 per student arrives as federal Title funding — a measure of concentrated need, not school quality.

Worth Knowing

On the state's science test (CAST), 5% met or exceeded the standard — science is tested in grades 5 and 8 but never enters the Scope Score.
