Summary

Cedarwood Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 848 students in the high-performing Clovis Unified district, consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 20% of California elementary schools.

Academically, Cedarwood significantly outperforms state averages, with about 66% of students proficient in English and 58% in math. The school shows particular strengths in mathematics instruction and has demonstrated remarkable recent success with its special education students. It also manages student attendance well, with a chronic absenteeism rate lower than both the district and state averages. While it is a solid and consistent performer, its statewide ranking has gradually declined over the past several years, and it faces a notable challenge in supporting its Asian student population to the same high level as other student groups.

Compared to nearby schools, Cedarwood achieves strong results with a moderate level of economic need and per-student spending. For instance, while it has a similar economic profile to Red Bank Elementary, Red Bank achieves higher English proficiency. Conversely, Century Elementary outperforms Cedarwood academically while serving a population with greater economic need. This shows that within the same strong district, school-level factors make a significant difference, and Cedarwood represents an efficient option that delivers good outcomes, especially for Hispanic students and in mathematics, though it does not reach the elite performance of some neighboring schools.
