Woodside Elementary

Woodside Elementary is the only school in this area list, serving kindergarten through grade 8, with 385 students; there are no other listed local schools to compare it with. The available comparisons are therefore with California statewide results. The clearest takeaway is that the school’s all-grades proficiency was far above the state’s in all three subjects in 2025–2026.

As the area’s only school, Woodside is both its highest and lowest by default, so the data cannot identify a local leader or trailer. Against California, the school was 38 percentage points higher in ELA (87% versus 49%), 48 points higher in mathematics (86% versus 38%), and 44 points higher in science (80% versus 36%); mathematics was its largest advantage. The strength also appears across the reported grade-level results: each was above the same-grade state comparison. Within the school, ELA ranged from 82% in grade 6 to 92% in grade 7, while mathematics ranged from 79% in grade 8 to 92% in grade 4.

Results improved most sharply in science, while ELA was essentially flat: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, the school’s science proficiency rose 12 points, mathematics rose 3 points, and ELA edged down; statewide science rose 3 points and mathematics rose 1. The school’s state advantage widened by 9 points in science and 2 in mathematics, while narrowing by 1 point in ELA. SchoolDigger ranked Woodside 40th of 5,804 California schools in 2025–2026, at the 99th percentile, compared with 93rd of 5,857 the prior year. Context figures include an 11.8 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 7% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these are observations, not explanations for the results. With only one school listed, local school-to-school patterns cannot be assessed.
