Summary:
The Placer Hills Union Elementary district in the Weimar and Meadow Vista area of Placer County consists of two schools serving a total of 755 students from kindergarten through 8th grade.
Overall, the district performs above state averages, with Sierra Hills Elementary (grades K-3) standing out for its exceptional math scores and lower chronic absenteeism. In comparison, Weimar Hills (grades 4-8) shows more varied performance, with strong results in 4th and 8th grades but a noticeable dip in the middle school years, alongside a higher rate of chronic absenteeism.
