Elementary Schools in Alhambra Unified

Summary:

The Alhambra Unified School District in California is home to 13 elementary schools serving grades K-8, with student populations ranging from 372 to 935. The district as a whole is ranked 266 out of 1,568 districts in the state and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out as top performers. Monterey Highlands Elementary is the highest-ranked school in the district, ranked 538 out of 5,862 California elementary schools and earning a rare 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Martha Baldwin Elementary and Brightwood Elementary also stand out, with 4-star ratings and strong academic performance.

However, the data also reveals significant variability in performance across the Alhambra Unified district. While some schools excel, others struggle with chronic absenteeism rates exceeding 20% and proficiency rates as low as 13-58%. Addressing these disparities and ensuring more consistent quality across the district could be an important focus for school leaders and policymakers.
