Summary

White Rock Elementary serves 381 students in grades K–5 in Rancho Cordova and is part of Folsom-Cordova Unified. The school’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates were 21% in English language arts (ELA), 17% in math and 13% in science, compared with state rates of 49%, 38% and 36%, respectively; district rates were 59%, 49% and 47%. The main concern is that White Rock trails both the state and district in every subject, with the largest gaps in ELA.

Math is White Rock’s strongest subject relative to its comparison points, although it remains well behind them: the school is 21 points below the state and 32 below the district in math, compared with gaps of 28 and 38 points in ELA. Among White Rock and six nearby K–5 schools, it ranks third in math, with 17% proficiency versus a nearby-school average of 27%; in ELA it ranks fourth, at 21% versus an average of 31%. Science proficiency is 13%, six points below the nearby average of 20%. So math is a relative bright spot, while ELA is the clearest weakness against both broader benchmarks and local peers.

Results have declined overall since 2022–2023: White Rock’s proficiency fell 5 points in ELA, 8 in math and 6 in science, while the state improved in all three subjects; the school’s gaps to the state widened in each. SchoolDigger ranks White Rock at the 8th percentile with 0 stars for 2025–2026, the third-lowest percentile among the 11 nearby schools. Context includes a 19.7 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025, close to the nearby-school average of 20.3, and 89% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, the highest among the nearby schools with that measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for English Language Learner students was at the 28th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with White Rock’s overall 6th percentile that year. Its ranking for Special Education students rose to the 37th percentile in 2024–2025, versus the school’s overall 10th percentile.
