Summary

Alexander Valley Elementary is a small K–6 school in Healdsburg, California, serving 111 students in an area with several nearby elementary-school options. In 2025–26, its proficiency rates were above California’s in ELA, math, and science. The most important takeaway is that Alexander Valley is among the strongest nearby K–6 schools in ELA and math, although its fifth-grade math results stand out as a weakness.

Compared with the four nearby K–6 peers, Alexander Valley ranked second of five in ELA and math and third in science; West Side Elementary scored higher in all three subjects. Alexander Valley’s proficiency was 77% in ELA, 65% in math, and 50% in science—27, 27, and 14 percentage points above California, respectively. Its results also matched those of Alexander Valley Union Elementary exactly. Fifth-grade math is a notable exception: 36% were proficient, 1 point below the state and behind West Side and San Miguel Elementary.

Scores have followed different paths: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA rose 5 points, while math fell 3 points and science fell 7; the school’s advantage over the state narrowed by 7 points in math and 13 in science. Small cohorts can make year-to-year results shift. SchoolDigger ranked Alexander Valley 806th of 5,804 schools, at the 86th percentile with 4 stars in 2025–26; nearby West Side ranked at the 98th percentile. In 2024–25, the student–teacher ratio was 13.9:1, and 25% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible—the lowest share among nearby schools with the same measure and year. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves White students rose from the 67th percentile in 2023–24 to the 81st in 2024–25, near the school’s overall 86th percentile that year.
