Summary

David L. Greenberg Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 490 students in the Fresno Unified School District, notable for its significant investment in resources and strong support for specific student groups.

The school differentiates itself from nearby schools in several key ways. It has the highest per-student spending in the area at over $26,000 and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 16.9, allowing for more individualized attention. Most impressively, its programs for English Learners and students in Special Education rank in the 90th percentile statewide, outperforming the vast majority of California schools. In mathematics, its proficiency rate is notably higher than the district average. However, a major challenge is a chronic absenteeism rate of 33.5%, which is higher than the district and state averages and presents a significant barrier to learning that the school is working to address.

When compared to a top local performer like Edith B. Storey Elementary, the data shows that high funding does not automatically lead to the highest rankings, as other factors like attendance are critical. Despite this challenge, Greenberg Elementary has shown remarkable resilience and a clear positive trajectory, improving from a very low ranking a decade ago to a consistent 2-star school today. Its strengths in targeted instruction and substantial resources position it to make further gains if it can successfully tackle the attendance issue.
