Summary

Bradley Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 530 students in the San Bernardino City Unified district, a school that has shown remarkable, steady improvement over the past decade from a very low ranking to performing in the 38th percentile statewide.

The school has particular strengths in mathematics, where it consistently outperforms the district average, and in supporting English Language Learners, where it has achieved rankings in the 89th and even 94th percentiles in recent years. Bradley also shows effective support for economically disadvantaged students and operates with more efficient spending per student than several nearby schools like Fairfax Elementary and Captain Leland Norton Elementary, which have higher costs but worse academic outcomes. While chronic absenteeism is a challenge, Bradley's rate is improving and is better than many surrounding schools, including Monterey Elementary and Hunt Elementary.

Within the challenging context of its district, Bradley stands out for its upward trajectory and specific successes, though it still faces difficulties in areas like science. It is important to note that a nearby charter school, Savant Preparatory Academy of Business, posts higher test scores but serves a less economically disadvantaged population and has a very different student-teacher ratio. Overall, Bradley Elementary represents a case of consistent growth and effective resource use among its peer schools in San Bernardino.
