Summary

Patriot Elementary is a large public elementary school serving 931 students in grades K-6 within the Rosedale Union Elementary district in Bakersfield, CA, currently performing slightly above the state average overall.

Academically, the school's test scores in English and Math are close to the California average but tend to be lower than many nearby schools in its own district, such as American Elementary and Independence Elementary. Science scores are a notable area for improvement, falling below both district and state averages. Despite these academic challenges, Patriot has a significant strength in student attendance, boasting a chronic absenteeism rate of just 5%, which is the best among most comparable schools and far better than the state average.

The school operates with a higher student-to-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending than other schools in the Rosedale Union Elementary district. While Patriot was once a higher-performing school, its statewide ranking has declined in recent years. Performance varies across different student groups, with some subgroups performing much higher than others. Compared to schools in neighboring districts like the Norris Elementary district, such as William B. Bimat Elementary, Patriot's academic results are generally lower, suggesting district-level factors may be at play.
