Summary

Woodcrest Elementary in Fullerton, California, serves 303 students in grades K–6 and is part of the Fullerton Elementary district. Its results have improved from a low point, and fourth-grade English language arts (ELA) stands out as a strength, but overall proficiency remains low. The most important finding for families is that Woodcrest’s latest scores lag the state and district in all three tested subjects, with science the clearest weakness.

In 2025–2026, about 31% of students were proficient in ELA, 20% in math, and 11% in science. Those results were 19, 18, and 25 percentage points below state rates, respectively, and 28, 31, and 31 points below district rates. Woodcrest ranked 8th of 10 nearby schools in ELA, 7th in math, and last in science; its ELA and math scores were also below nearby-school averages of 34% and 24%, while science averaged 21%. Fourth-grade ELA is a striking exception: 47% were proficient, about 1 point above the state rate and the highest among nearby schools; the next-highest result was 44% at Price (Adelaide) Elementary.

Scores have risen since 2022–2023: ELA gained 13 percentage points, math 12, and science 11, though math has dipped slightly in the last two years. SchoolDigger rates Woodcrest 1 star and places it at the 18th statewide percentile in 2025–2026, up from the 3rd percentile in 2022–2023. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 24.5, and 81% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings show a more favorable measure for English Language Learner students: the group ranked at the 59th percentile in 2023–2024, versus the school’s overall 25th percentile. By contrast, its 2025–2026 Special Education Students ranking was at the 4th percentile, below the school’s overall 18th-percentile standing.
