Jefferson Elementary is a K–6 school with 556 students in Clovis, California, within Clovis Unified. In 2025–2026, its students scored 66% in English language arts (ELA), 55% in math and 55% in science, compared with California averages of 49%, 38% and 36%. The most important finding is that Jefferson’s proficiency was above the state average in all three subjects.

Science is Jefferson’s clearest strength compared with nearby schools and the district: its 55% proficiency was 8 points above the nearby-school average and 3 points above the district. ELA was 4 points above nearby schools but 3 points below the district; math was 2 points above nearby schools and effectively level with the district. Among Jefferson and 10 nearby schools, it ranked fourth in science, fifth in ELA and sixth in math. Results also vary by grade: fifth-grade ELA reached 80%, while sixth-grade math was 42%, 15 points below the district’s sixth-grade result.

Results have improved substantially since 2022–2023: ELA rose 18 points, math 19 points and science 24 points by 2025–2026, though ELA and math dipped in 2024–2025 before rebounding. SchoolDigger ranked Jefferson in the 81st statewide percentile and awarded it 4 stars in 2025–2026; its percentile had risen from 57 in 2021–2022. In 2024–2025, its student–teacher ratio was 19.3, the lowest among nearby schools, and 67% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school served English Language Learner Students shifted from the 96th percentile in 2017–2018 to the 5th in 2021–2022. In 2024–2025, its ranking for how well it served Asian Students was at the 19th percentile, compared with 68th overall. These subgroup rankings are reported for selected years, so the change does not show a continuous year-by-year trend.
