Summary:
The 17 schools in Etiwanda Elementary include 13 elementary schools serving K–5 and four intermediate schools serving grades 6–8. In 2025–26, their unweighted averages were 68% in ELA, 63% in math and 50% in science—about 19, 25 and 14 points above state results. The clearest area strength is math, and every school scored above the state figure in all three subjects.
Among intermediate schools, Day Creek Intermediate led in ELA (81%), math (74%) and science (65%), beating the next-best intermediate school by 13, 20 and 25 points; it was also the only intermediate school with a five-star SchoolDigger rating. Among elementary schools, John L. Golden Elementary led in all three subjects, with scores of 79%, 79% and 70%—4, 6 and 8 points above the respective runners-up. At the lower end, Etiwanda Intermediate had the lowest intermediate ELA score (62%), while Heritage Intermediate had the lowest intermediate math and science scores (46% and 37%). West Heritage Elementary had the lowest elementary ELA and math results (59% and 57%), and East Heritage Elementary had the lowest elementary science result (38%).
Area averages were nearly unchanged in ELA and math from 2024–25 to 2025–26, and rose about 1 point in science; state gains were faster, particularly in science. School changes varied sharply: West Heritage science rose 18 points, while Grapeland Elementary fell 15 points and Etiwanda Colony Elementary fell 13. Class-size context does not follow a simple pattern: student-teacher ratios ranged from 20.9 at Falcon Ridge Elementary to 25.4 at Etiwanda Intermediate, while Golden led elementary results with a ratio of 24.6. For additional context, free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–25 ranged from 19% at Golden to 39% at West Heritage; these figures describe school context, not the cause of results.
