Summary

Rosa Parks Environmental Science is an elementary school in Berkeley, California, serving 371 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Berkeley Unified School District, which is ranked 171 out of 1,565 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Rosa Parks Environmental Science consistently ranks among the top 10% of California elementary schools, with impressive academic performance. In the 2024-2025 school year, 73.68% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, and 74.35% were proficient or better in Mathematics, significantly outperforming the state averages. The school's performance is particularly strong in certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and White students, who rank in the top 10% and top 5% of California elementary schools, respectively. However, the school should focus on improving outcomes for other subgroups, such as African American and multi-racial students.

While Rosa Parks Environmental Science performs well compared to other schools in the Berkeley Unified School District, such as Berkeley Arts Magnet at Whittier and Ruth Acty Elementary, its performance is not as strong as some of the top-performing schools in the neighboring Albany City Unified School District, like Marin Elementary and Cornell Elementary. Additionally, the school has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, which is an area that should be addressed to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
