Summary

Barton (Clara) Elementary serves 588 students in kindergarten through grade six in Anaheim, in the Anaheim Elementary district. Its latest results show improvement, but the most important concern is a pronounced sixth-grade weakness, particularly in math: 15% of Barton sixth graders met the math standard in 2025–2026, compared with 37% statewide.

Barton is stronger in science than in its other tested subjects: 31% of students met the standard, about 5 points above the nearby-school average and 11 points above the district, though still 5 points below the state. In ELA, 39% met the standard—about 3 points below the nearby-school average and 10 below the state—while math was 30%, about 2 points below nearby schools and 8 below the state. Barton exceeded district results in all three subjects. Results also vary by grade: fourth-grade ELA was 49%, above both the district’s 32% and the state’s 46%; sixth-grade ELA was 27%, below the district’s 35% and the state’s 48%. For comparison, nearby Walt Disney posted 55% in ELA, 43% in math and 39% in science.

Scores have risen over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Barton gained 12 points in ELA, 5 in math and 13 in science, narrowing its gaps with the state. Chronic absenteeism also fell from 35% in 2021–2022 to 18% in 2025–2026, slightly below the district and state rates. SchoolDigger rates Barton at the 41st percentile and 2 stars for 2025–2026, up from the 28th percentile and 1 star in 2023–2024. Its student-teacher ratio was 24 in 2024–2025, and 78% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a sharp decline in how well Barton serves English Language Learner Students: the ranking fell from the 66th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 13th in 2023–2024, compared with an overall ranking of 28 that year. Its ranking for how well it serves Homeless Students was notably higher, at the 68th percentile in 2024–2025 versus 32nd overall.
