Summary

Maple Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 511 students in the Fontana Unified School District, consistently ranking in the bottom third of California elementary schools.

Academic proficiency at Maple Elementary is significantly below state and district averages, with only about 30% of students proficient in English and 23% in math, placing it lower than nearly all nearby schools like Dolores Huerta International Academy and Samuel W. Simpson Elementary. The school faces a major challenge with chronic absenteeism, as nearly one-third of students miss too much school, a rate much higher than several neighboring schools. Interestingly, despite lower per-student spending than many peers, the school has shown relative strength in serving its Special Education students.

Maple Elementary's performance has declined over the past decade, and it shows a notable pattern where math scores drop sharply between 3rd and 5th grade. The school's situation highlights how outcomes can vary widely even among close neighbors; for example, Samuel W. Simpson Elementary—less than 1.5 miles away in the Rialto Unified district—achieves much higher rankings. This suggests that targeted strategies, particularly around improving attendance and learning from higher-performing schools with similar demographics, could be pathways for improvement.
