Summary:
Rodeo, California, is served by a single public elementary school, Rodeo Hills Elementary, a K-5 school educating 534 students within the John Swett Unified district, which faces broader academic challenges as it ranks in the 26th percentile statewide.
Rodeo Hills Elementary shows significant areas for improvement, with its academic performance ranking in the 17th percentile among California schools and declining over recent years. Student proficiency rates in English and math are notably below state averages, and a critical concern is the chronic absenteeism rate of 29.6%, which is higher than both the district and state averages and can be a major barrier to learning.
Despite these challenges, the school spends above the state average per student, and there are some positive signs, such as 5th graders performing relatively better in English Language Arts. Key areas for focus include addressing attendance, reviewing the math curriculum—especially for 4th graders where scores drop sharply—and ensuring school resources are effectively used to support student achievement.
