Excelsior Elementary

Public Grades 4-6
Summary

Excelsior Elementary is a well-regarded middle school serving 469 students in grades 4 through 6 in the Eureka Union School District in Roseville, known for its strong academic performance that consistently exceeds state averages.

Academically, the school shines, with about 71% of students proficient in English and 66% in math, significantly higher than most schools in neighboring districts like San Juan Unified. While it performs slightly below the high average of its own district peers like Willma Cavitt Junior High and Ridgeview Elementary, it serves a more economically diverse student population. A standout success is attendance; the school has dramatically reduced chronic absenteeism by over half in three years, a key factor in supporting student achievement.

Excelsior operates very efficiently, achieving these strong results with a higher student-teacher ratio and lower per-student spending than some district counterparts. The school shows impressive growth from 4th to 6th grade, though a dip in 5th-grade math scores presents a focused opportunity. Overall, Excelsior Elementary delivers a quality, effective education that is competitive within the high-performing landscape of Roseville-area schools.
