Summary

Granada Elementary is a 348-student K–8 school in Alhambra, California, in Alhambra Unified. Its 2025–2026 results show a clear difference by grade: third graders did relatively well, while fifth graders struggled. Fifth-grade proficiency was just 19% in English language arts (ELA), 4% in math and 11% in science—below state and district results and below every nearby school serving fifth grade. This concentrated fifth-grade weakness is the school’s most important academic concern.

Across all grades, Granada trails both the state and district in all three subjects, and it ranked last among five nearby K–8 schools. Granada scored 47% in ELA, 37% in math and 24% in science, compared with peer averages of 63%, 55% and 51%. Math is closest to the state average (37% versus 38%), while ELA is its relatively stronger subject compared with its district and K–8 peers; science is the clearest weakness (24% versus 36% statewide and 52% districtwide). SchoolDigger also places the district at the 85th percentile statewide, well above Granada’s school-level standing.

ELA and math have improved since 2022–2023, rising 14 and 11 percentage points, respectively, and narrowing their gaps with the state. Science increased only 3 points, while the state gained 6, so the gap widened. SchoolDigger ranked Granada 3,014th of 5,804 statewide in 2025–2026, at the 48th percentile with 2 stars; its ranking rose from the 28th percentile in 2022–2023, but it remains near the bottom of nearby schools. Context includes a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 17.1:1 in 2024–2025 and 55% free/reduced lunch eligible that year, close to the nearby-school average. Chronic absenteeism was 18% in 2025–2026, higher than every nearby school and the district’s 9%. SchoolDigger’s subgroup ranking was notably stronger for English Language Learner Students—83rd percentile in 2022–2023 versus 28th overall—while Male Students ranked at the 33rd percentile in 2025–2026, below the school’s 48th-percentile overall standing.
