Summary

Dwight D. Eisenhower Elementary is a K–5 school serving 453 students in Santa Clara, in the Cupertino Union School District. Its 2025–2026 test results were above California’s in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but below its district in all three. The key takeaway is that it outperformed the state across subjects, yet science was a particular challenge compared with district and nearby results.

Math is Eisenhower’s strongest local subject: 70% of students were proficient, placing it fifth among 11 schools including Eisenhower, compared with a nearby-school average of 62%; 69% were proficient statewide and 84% in the district. ELA proficiency was 65%, sixth locally and 2 points above the nearby average of 63%; state and district rates were 49% and 80%. Science was weakest by comparison: 51% proficiency ranked eighth locally, 7 points below the nearby average of 57%, though above the 36% state rate. The district rate was 76%, 25 points higher than Eisenhower’s. Overall, SchoolDigger ranked Eisenhower in the 86th state percentile with 4 stars; five of the 10 nearby schools had higher percentiles.

Proficiency has declined since 2022–2023: ELA fell from 76% to 65%, math from 78% to 70%, and science from 57% to 51%. Meanwhile, chronic absenteeism rose 4 points in the latest year, to 12% in 2025–2026—below the state’s 18% but above the district’s 6%. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 21.1, compared with a nearby average of 20.6. The school reported that 28% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, versus a nearby average of 25%; this is an eligibility measure, not the share receiving meals. SchoolDigger’s group-specific statewide rankings also stood well below its overall percentile: it ranked in the 24th percentile for how well it serves Hispanic students and the 22nd for White students, compared with 86th overall.
