Elementary Schools in Forestville Union Elementary

Summary:

The Forestville Union Elementary district contains one school, Forestville Elementary, which serves only kindergarten and 1st grade for its 72 students.

Parents should be aware that Forestville Elementary has seen a significant decline in its statewide academic ranking over the past two decades, falling from the 82nd percentile to the 41st percentile, which is reflected in its current two-star rating. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with 28.2% of students missing too much school, a rate notably higher than the California average of 19.4%.

Despite the district spending a substantial $34,722 per student, academic results have not kept pace with the investment. The school maintains a moderate student-teacher ratio of 18 to 1, and about 39% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The key challenges for the school appear to be reversing the trend in academic performance and addressing the high rate of student absences.
