Summary

Foothill Elementary is a K-6 public school serving about 640 students in the Corona-Norco Unified School District, maintaining a solid, middle-tier performance with recent signs of improvement after a period of decline.

Academically, Foothill's test scores are above the state average in all core subjects, with a notable strength in science, but they generally trail the district average. The school shows a remarkable ability to support students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, often outperforming other schools with similar or even lower poverty rates, such as John Stallings Elementary and Vicentia Elementary. However, performance varies significantly by grade level, indicating some inconsistency in the educational experience from one year to the next. Chronic student absenteeism, while improved, remains higher than the district average, which is a challenge shared by other schools in the area.

An interesting point for parents is that Foothill spends significantly more per student than many nearby schools, including higher-performing ones like Lincoln Fundamental Elementary and Dwight D. Eisenhower Elementary, yet its overall academic results are not as strong, suggesting resources may be allocated differently. The school's closest geographic neighbors show a wide range of performance, proving that similar locations do not guarantee similar outcomes. Foothill's recent upward trend in statewide ranking is a positive sign that the school may be on a path to recapturing its historically higher performance levels.
