Summary

Woodrow Wilson Elementary is a K-6 school serving 335 students in the Selma Unified district, operating in a high-need community where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom quartile of California elementary schools, though it shows some notable strengths. Its performance in science recently exceeded the district average, and it has been effective in supporting English Language Learner students. However, these bright spots contrast with weaker performance in math and significant inconsistencies between different grade levels. The school spends more per student than many nearby schools, like Andrew Jackson Elementary, but this higher spending has not yet translated into stronger overall academic outcomes.

Interestingly, school performance varies dramatically even within the same neighborhood. For instance, James Garfield Elementary, located less than half a mile away, is a high-performing school, while Terry Elementary faces even greater challenges. This shows that within the same district and similar communities, individual school factors can lead to very different results. Woodrow Wilson's chronic absenteeism rate, while improved from pandemic highs, remains an area for potential growth as the school works to leverage its specific strengths for broader improvement.
