Summary

Healdsburg Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 401 students in the Healdsburg Unified district, which is a highly-rated district in the 78th percentile statewide, and the school itself has undergone a remarkable transformation from a low-performing to a consistently high-performing 4-star school over the past decade.

The school's story is one of impressive turnaround and strong results, particularly because it achieves high academic proficiency in math (58.33%) and science (51.61%) while serving a student population where a high percentage qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. This performance is notably stronger than at many nearby schools with similar student demographics, such as Brooks Elementary or Cali Calmecac Language Academy. Furthermore, the school has made dramatic strides in reducing chronic student absenteeism, cutting the rate by more than half to now outperform both its district and the state.

While two very nearby schools, West Side Elementary and Alexander Valley Elementary, show higher overall performance, they serve less economically disadvantaged populations, making Healdsburg Elementary's achievements stand out. The school spends more per student than many neighbors but also gets strong results, showing effective support for all student groups, including a recent significant jump in performance for English Learners. This points to a school that has successfully implemented strategies to support its entire community.
