Summary

Edith B. Storey Elementary is a K-6 public school in the Fresno Unified district, serving 554 students in a high-need area where about 80% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, yet it stands out as a major academic success story with a 4-star rating.

The school's performance is exceptional, especially when compared to its neighbors. In English and Math, Storey's proficiency rates are far higher than the Fresno Unified district average and beat every nearby school, including Lane Elementary and Easterby Elementary. Its statewide rank is in the 72nd percentile, a huge improvement from a decade ago and in a completely different tier than most local schools. A key strength is early literacy, where its 3rd graders score more than double the district average, setting a strong foundation for future grades.

Storey achieves these results while effectively serving its student community, with notably lower chronic absenteeism than the district average. While it spends more per student than most nearby Fresno Unified schools, its success shows that factors beyond just funding or class size, like instructional quality, are driving results. It even outperforms Lone Star Elementary from the higher-performing Sanger Unified district academically, despite a higher absence rate. For families in the area, Storey represents the top academic choice by a wide margin.
