Summary

Akira Yokomi Elementary is a K-6 public school serving about 700 students in the Fresno Unified School District, standing out for its consistent performance in a high-need community.

The school is a strong performer within its district, with test scores that are above the Fresno Unified average and higher than many nearby schools like Webster Elementary, Lowell Elementary, and Susan B. Anthony Elementary. It shows particular effectiveness in supporting English Learners and students with special needs. A major success story is a dramatic improvement in student attendance, which has fallen to match the state average, a key factor in academic achievement.

Interestingly, Yokomi achieves these results while spending significantly less per student than several neighboring schools. For example, it spends about $11,000 less per student than Susan B. Anthony Elementary but has better academic outcomes. While strong in early grades, performance dips in 5th grade, suggesting a focus area. Compared to the higher-performing Jefferson Elementary nearby, Yokomi serves nearly twice as many students with fewer resources, demonstrating that effective practices can lead to solid results in a challenging environment.
