Summary

Janet L. Young Elementary is a well-regarded K-6 school serving 647 students within the highly ranked Clovis Unified School District in Fresno, consistently earning a 4-star rating for its balanced academic program that outperforms state averages.

The school truly shines in science, where its student proficiency is the highest among 11 comparable local schools and significantly above both district and state averages. It also demonstrates a balanced strength across all core subjects, avoiding the large gaps seen at some neighboring schools like Jefferson Elementary. Furthermore, Janet L. Young operates very efficiently, achieving these strong results while spending significantly less per student than several nearby schools with similar or lower academic performance.

An interesting finding is that the school maintains high achievement and stability even while serving a student population with considerable economic need, suggesting particularly effective instructional strategies. Opportunities for growth include addressing a noted performance disparity among different student subgroups and working to further reduce the chronic absenteeism rate, which, while better than the district average, is linked to higher achievement at schools like Red Bank Elementary. Overall, Janet L. Young represents a model of consistent, cost-effective excellence within the district.
