Summary:
The Santa Rosa Elementary district in California serves 12 elementary schools, ranging from kindergarten to 8th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 1107 out of 1568 in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating significant room for improvement.
A few schools stand out as performing better than the district and state averages. Hidden Valley Elementary and Santa Rosa French-American Charter (SRFACS) consistently rank in the top 25-30% of California elementary schools, with 4-star ratings and significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Proctor Terrace Elementary also performs well, ranking in the top 35% with a 3-star rating and above-average proficiency.
However, the data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district. Many schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.8% to 49.2%, and high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage. Addressing these challenges, particularly for the lower-performing schools, should be a priority for the district to drive overall improvement and close the achievement gap.
