SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 5,804 California Elementary Schools

Better than 21% of California elementary schools

Summary

Terrace Elementary serves 740 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Riverside’s Alvord Unified district, and it is the largest of the nearby schools. Its results are below state and district levels in all three core subjects, but among nearby Alvord K–5 schools it performs better than average in science and English language arts (ELA)—so its results are mixed, not uniformly low.

Science is Terrace’s strongest result against nearby same-grade schools, while math is its weakest: in 2025–26, about 24% of students were proficient in science, 31% in ELA and 21% in math. The nearby K–5 averages were about 19% in science and 29% in ELA; for math, Terrace was just below the average (20.8% versus 20.9%). It ranked third of seven nearby schools in science and ELA, and fourth in math. Still, Terrace trailed the state by 12 points in science, 18 in ELA and 18 in math, and trailed Alvord Unified by 4, 7 and 5 points, respectively.

Science is improving, but ELA and math have lost ground: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, science proficiency rose 12 points as the state rate rose 6, while ELA fell 3 points and math fell 1 as state results increased in both. SchoolDigger ranks Terrace 4,596th of 5,804 statewide, in the 21st percentile with 1 star. Its student-teacher ratio was 23.4 in 2024–25, above the nearby-school average of 22.7; 90% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a standout result for effectiveness serving Homeless Students: 75th percentile, rank 90 of 366, with 4 stars in 2025–26. Its ranking for effectiveness serving Special Education Students fell from the 47th percentile in 2024–25 to the 12th in 2025–26, while its overall percentile stayed at 21.
