Summary

Lorin A. Eden Elementary serves 386 students in grades K–6 in Hayward, California, with 10 nearby K–6 schools included in the comparison. In 2025–2026, its overall proficiency rates were higher than Hayward Unified’s in all three tested subjects, but lower than California’s in every subject. The most important takeaway is that math is the school’s clearest relative strength, even though its math proficiency still trails the state rate.

Compared with the nearby schools, Lorin A. Eden ranked third of 11 in math, fifth in science and sixth in English language arts (ELA). Math proficiency was 35%, versus 38% statewide and 22% in the district; the nearby-school average was 26%. ELA was 35%, 14 points below the state and 1 point above the district, and close to the nearby average of 36%. Science was 25%, 11 points below the state and 2 points above the district, compared with a nearby average of 23%. Grade results vary: fourth-grade ELA and math were above state rates, while sixth-grade ELA was 23%, well below the state’s 48% and the district’s 34%.

Math has improved, but ELA and science have not kept pace with state gains: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, math rose 8 points and its gap to the state narrowed, while ELA fell 1 point and science fell 2 points. Chronic absenteeism also dropped substantially, from 56% in 2021–2022 to 19% in 2025–2026—still 1 point above the state rate. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 40th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, fourth among the 11 nearby schools; its percentile has varied from 31 to 42 in the longer history provided. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 24.6:1, second-highest in the nearby group. Also in 2024–2025, 68% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below the nearby average of 75%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students was at the 2nd percentile, compared with the school’s overall 40th percentile; for Hispanic Students, it was at the 14th percentile.
