Summary

Howard Cattle Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 594 students in the Chino Valley Unified district, which has seen its statewide ranking decline to the 39th percentile, placing its overall performance below the district average.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, with student proficiency in English, math, and science falling well below both district and state averages; the science proficiency rate of 10.53% is a particular area of concern. Performance also varies widely by grade, with 4th grade showing relative strength in English while 5th grade struggles deeply in math and science. A notable positive trend is a dramatic improvement in chronic absenteeism, which has been cut by more than half since 2022, indicating successful family engagement.

Interesting comparisons arise with nearby schools, especially Edwin Rhodes Elementary, located less than half a mile away. While both schools serve similar student populations, Edwin Rhodes ranks in the 82nd percentile with much higher test scores, suggesting factors beyond demographics are at play. Furthermore, despite Howard Cattle's per-student spending being comparable to or higher than some better-performing neighbors, academic outcomes are lower, raising questions about how resources are used to support instruction and student learning.
