Summary:
The Savanna Elementary district consists of four elementary schools (K-6) in California, all of which perform at or above state averages in core subjects despite serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.
When comparing the schools, Holder Elementary stands out as the highest performer overall, with the strongest test scores in English and math and the district's top state ranking. Cerritos Elementary has the district's lowest chronic absenteeism rate and the highest per-student spending, while Hansen Elementary excels specifically in science proficiency. Twila Reid Elementary is the largest school and shows notable strength in 5th grade English.
Key takeaways for the area include the district's particular strength in mathematics, where it outperforms the state average by a significant margin. There is no clear link between higher spending and better academic results in this district. All schools maintain consistent, above-average performance, with the main challenge being to improve science scores to match their success in math and to further reduce absenteeism rates at most sites.
