Summary

Woodrow Wilson Elementary is a K–6 school in Colton, serving 465 students in Colton Joint Unified. Its most urgent academic concern is math: proficiency has declined, and fifth grade’s result is the lowest among the nearby schools compared.

In 2025–2026, Wilson’s proficiency was 30% in ELA, 18% in math, and 12% in science. All three were below state results, with the widest gap in science: about 24 percentage points below the state and 7 below the district. Wilson was also below nearby-school averages in each subject, by about 3 points in ELA, 4 in math, and 5 in science. There are some grade-level bright spots: fourth-grade math was 30%, above the district’s 24%, and fourth-grade ELA was 36%, above the district’s 33%. But fifth-grade math was just 4%, below every nearby school’s result; the next-lowest was 5% at Alice Birney Elementary.

Wilson’s math proficiency fell from 25% in 2022–2023 to 18% in 2025–2026, while the state improved; its gap with the state widened from about 10 to 20 percentage points. Chronic absenteeism has improved from 52% in 2021–2022 to 27% in 2025–2026, but remains higher than the state and nearby schools. SchoolDigger ranked Wilson in the 18th percentile statewide and gave it 1 star in 2025–2026; its percentile has fallen from 38 in 2021–2022. Wilson’s student-teacher ratio was 24.2 in 2024–2025, the second highest among nearby schools, and 89% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, compared with a nearby-school average of 84%. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings also stand out: for African American students, Wilson ranked in the 2nd percentile in 2024–2025, compared with its overall 22nd percentile; for English Language Learner students, its ranking fell from the 62nd percentile in 2021–2022 to the 24th in 2023–2024.
