of 5,857 California Elementary Schools

Better than 7% of California elementary schools

Summary

Kawana Springs Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 328 students in the Bellevue Union School District in Santa Rosa, which is currently ranked in the bottom 7% of all California elementary schools based on academic performance.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with only 23% of students proficient in English and 10% proficient in math, which are the lowest scores among nearby schools in its district, including Meadow View Elementary and Taylor Mountain Elementary. This is part of an eight-year decline, and the school spends more per student ($25,206) than any other school in the comparison, yet has weaker results than schools like Sheppard Elementary which spends significantly less.

While chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically, the school's performance, especially in math, remains a critical concern. Notably, there are higher-performing public options very close by, such as Santa Rosa French-American Charter (SRFACS) and Yulupa Elementary, demonstrating that stronger academic outcomes are achievable in the same geographic area.
