Summary

Ericson Elementary is a K–6 school in Fresno with 722 students and is part of Fresno Unified. For 2025–26, SchoolDigger ranks it at the 38th percentile statewide and gives it 2 stars, compared with the district’s 34th percentile and 2 stars. The clearest academic concern is science: 10% of students were proficient, compared with 24% in the district and 36% statewide, leaving Ericson third-lowest among nine nearby K–6 schools with scores.

English language arts (ELA) is a local bright spot: 41% were proficient, about 3 percentage points above the other nearby schools’ average, and fourth-highest among ten schools. That result was 1 point above the district but 9 below the state. Math was close to the nearby average at 30%; it was 1 point above the district and 8 below the state. Results also vary by grade: fourth grade was relatively strong, while fifth-grade ELA was 8 points below the district and fifth-grade math was 16% proficient, compared with 29% in the district and 37% statewide. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism was 30%, 3 points above the district and 12 above the state; only Viking Elementary was higher among nearby K–6 schools.

Since 2022–23, ELA has improved by 10 percentage points and math by 6, while science has fallen by 5; SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking rose from the 26th percentile in 2021–22 to the 38th in 2025–26, though it fluctuated in recent years. The 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 18.8, below the nearby-school average of 19.9. Also in 2024–25, 95% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; these figures are context, not an explanation for academic results. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness rankings show uneven results across student groups: Asian students ranked at the 11th percentile in 2025–26, 27 points below the school’s overall percentile. English Language Learner Students’ ranking fell from the 79th percentile in 2022–23 to the 39th in 2023–24, a 40-point drop, while the overall ranking rose over that period.
