Summary

Brentwood Elementary is a large, K-5 public school serving 811 students in the Brentwood Union district, consistently performing in the upper-middle tier of California schools.

Academically, the school performs above state averages but slightly below the average for its own high-performing district, with schools like Loma Vista Elementary and R. Paul Krey Elementary scoring higher. A notable finding is a significant gender performance gap, with female students outperforming male students by a wider margin than at many nearby schools. The school also shows a dramatic increase in students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which has nearly doubled in two years, yet test scores have remained stable.

Brentwood Elementary operates with the lowest per-student spending among its immediate district peers, such as Ron Nunn Elementary. Math scores show a concerning pattern of declining proficiency from 3rd to 5th grade. While chronic absenteeism is lower than the state average, it is higher than at some district schools like Mary Casey Black Elementary. It's important to note that all schools in the Brentwood Union district outperform those in the neighboring Oakley Union Elementary district.
