Summary

Rolling Hills Elementary serves 554 students in grades K–6 in Fullerton Elementary School District, which SchoolDigger ranks 293rd among 968 California districts. The key takeaway is that Rolling Hills scores above state averages in all three tested subjects, but falls below nearby K–6 schools in all three, especially in math.

Compared with the state in 2025–26, Rolling Hills was ahead in ELA (51% versus 49%) and science (42% versus 36%), but its math result was only marginally higher: 38.5% versus 38.4%. It trailed the district in ELA (51% versus 59%), math (38% versus 52%) and science (42% versus 42%). Among eight nearby K–6 schools with reported all-grade scores, the averages were 67% in ELA, 61% in math and 50% in science; Rolling Hills was lower by 16, 22 and 9 percentage points, respectively, and had the lowest ELA and math results. Sixth-grade math stands out as a particular concern: 29% of students met the standard, compared with 37% statewide and 53% in the district, and below the nearby result at Arovista Elementary (41%). Fifth-grade ELA was stronger, at 58%, above the state’s 49% but below the district’s 61%.

Over four years, ELA rose 4 percentage points and science 17, while math fell 2; the school’s math lead over the state narrowed from 6 points to less than 1. SchoolDigger ranks Rolling Hills at the 61st statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 56th percentile the year before but below its 74th-percentile result in 2018–19. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 22.9, lower than the ratios reported for nearby traditional schools. In 2024–25, 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the third-highest rate among nearby schools reporting the same measure. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also point to lower standing for Special Education Students: the school was at the 19th percentile in 2024–25, versus the overall 56th percentile, indicating a lower relative ranking in how well it serves that group. For Hispanic Students, its ranking improved 17 percentile points to the 43rd percentile in 2025–26, still below the school’s overall 61st percentile.
