Summary

Malloch Elementary serves 495 students in grades K–6 in Fresno, in Fresno Unified. Its strongest results are in math and English language arts (ELA), but science is a clear exception: proficiency was 52% in math and 54% in ELA, compared with 24% in science. The most important takeaway is that strong math and ELA results do not extend to science.

Malloch is above nearby K–6 school averages in ELA and math but below them in science: its rates were 7 points higher in ELA and 10 points higher in math, and 4 points lower in science. Compared with state results, Malloch was 5 points ahead in ELA and 13 points ahead in math, but 12 points behind in science. Its science rate was about level with Fresno Unified; ELA and math were 14 and 22 points higher, respectively. Results also differ by grade: fifth grade was a weak spot, with 40% in ELA and 36% in math, while sixth grade reached 64% and 53%.

Over four years, math proficiency rose 6 percentage points, while ELA fell 5 points and science fell 12; the latest science result dropped from 40% the prior year to 24%. Malloch has a 68th-percentile statewide ranking and 3 stars from SchoolDigger, tied with Nelson Elementary and behind Bullard Talent, H. Roger Tatarian Elementary and Starr Elementary. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves Low Socio Economic Status Students reached the 85th percentile, up from 53 the year before; this is a ranking of school effectiveness for that group, not of the students. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 20.8, among the highest nearby, and 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, lower than most nearby schools reporting the same measure.
