Summary

Butteville Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 162 students in the rural community of Weed, CA, and stands out as a strong academic performer in its region with a 3-star rating.

Academically, the school consistently outperforms both state averages and all nearby schools in core subjects like English, Math, and Science, achieving this success with moderate per-student spending compared to other local schools that spend more for lower results. For example, while Butteville Elementary spends about $15,400 per student, schools like Dunsmuir Elementary and Weed Elementary spend significantly more but have much lower proficiency rates. The school has also made impressive strides in improving student attendance, cutting chronic absenteeism by more than half to a rate now better than the state average.

While the school excels overall, there are some areas to watch, such as a performance dip in middle grades and a notable gap between how male and female students score. Its size—larger than the very smallest schools but smaller than the largest in the area—may contribute to its ability to balance personal attention with efficient resources. For families in the Butteville Union Elementary district, the school represents a case of effective education that delivers strong results for its community.
