Summary

Roeding Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 704 students in the Fresno Unified School District, operating in a high-need community where the vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

While the school's test scores are below state averages, it has shown significant improvement, moving from a 1-star to a 2-star rating and climbing in statewide rankings. Importantly, Roeding outperforms several nearby schools with very similar student populations, such as Wilson Elementary and Deborah A. Williams Elementary, in English Language Arts. The school has made remarkable progress in reducing chronic absenteeism and demonstrates a particular strength in supporting English Language Learners, who perform well above average. Its Spanish Language Arts program is also a relative strength compared to district and state averages.

However, a nearby charter school, Morris E. Dailey Charter Elementary, posts significantly higher test scores and lower absenteeism, though it serves a substantially different student population. Roeding's recent progress is promising but has been volatile in the past, indicating a need for sustained effort. The school also shows performance gaps between different student groups and struggles more in upper-grade mathematics, highlighting areas for continued focus and growth.
