Brooks Elementary

4500^th

SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 5,804 California Elementary Schools

Better than 22% of California elementary schools

Summary

In Windsor, California, Brooks Elementary serves 493 students in grades 3–5. Its most important challenge is that 2025–2026 proficiency was below both state and district averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science.

Compared with nearby schools, Brooks is near the low end of the results: among eight schools with all-grade scores, it had the lowest ELA proficiency, 29% versus a peer average of 51%, and the second-lowest results in math (24% versus 47%) and science (27% versus 45%). Grade 3 stands out as especially weak: Brooks was below all seven nearby schools with grade 3 results in both ELA and math. Grade 4 is a relative bright spot within Brooks; its ELA and math results were above the district’s, but still below state proficiency levels. Of the three subjects, science is closest to the state, with Brooks 9 percentage points behind; math is closest to the district, 2 points behind. Nearby schools often serve additional grades, so grade-matched comparisons help put the schoolwide figures in context.

Results have weakened over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Brooks’ ELA proficiency fell from 33% to 29%, math from 25% to 24%, and science from 27% to 27%, while state proficiency rose in each subject. The state gaps widened from 14 to 21 points in ELA, 10 to 14 in math, and 3 to 9 in science. SchoolDigger places Brooks at the 22nd percentile statewide (1 star) in 2025–2026, down from the 36th percentile in 2022–2023; Windsor Unified is at the 34th percentile (2 stars). Attendance moved in a more positive direction: chronic absenteeism dropped from 35% in 2021–2022 to 16% in 2025–2026. In 2024–2025, the student–teacher ratio was 21.8, tied with Jack London Elementary and higher than most nearby schools; 50% of Brooks students were free/reduced lunch eligible, near the nearby-school average of 52%. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for English Language Learner Students rose from the 11th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 45th in 2023–2024, while its ranking for Special Education Students fell from the 59th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 27th in 2025–2026.
