Summary

Taylor Mountain Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 468 students in Santa Rosa's Bellevue Union School District, which consistently ranks among the lowest-performing districts in the state.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom 15% of California elementary schools, though it shows relative strength in English Language Arts compared to some district peers like Kawana Springs Elementary. Performance varies dramatically by grade, with 6th-grade English scores being notably stronger than alarmingly low 5th-grade math scores. The school has a high rate of chronic student absenteeism at 23.3%, which is improving but remains above the state average and higher than nearby schools such as Marguerite Hahn Elementary (12.4%).

Notably, Taylor Mountain spends over $23,800 per student—considerably more than several higher-performing nearby schools with similar student demographics, like Robert L. Stevens Elementary. This pattern of high spending with low academic results is consistent across all schools in the Bellevue Union district, suggesting broader systemic challenges. For improvement, the school could benefit from addressing attendance and examining the successful practices of comparable, higher-achieving schools in the area.
