Summary

Lorin A. Eden Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 386 students in the Hayward Unified school district, operating in a high-need community where a majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school has notable strengths and challenges: its English and math scores are consistently higher than most other Glassbrook Elementary and Tyrrell Elementary, but it shows a dramatic and concerning drop in science proficiency and is ranked in the bottom 1% of the state for serving special education students. The school has made impressive progress in improving student attendance, reducing chronic absenteeism by 60% over three years, and it receives more funding per student than most of its district peers.

Performance varies significantly within the school; for example, female students consistently outperform male students by a wide margin, and math scores swing from well above to well below state averages depending on the grade level. When compared to the nearby Hayward Collegiate Charter, which spends less per student, Lorin A. Eden performs similarly in English but lags in math, highlighting that factors beyond funding influence outcomes.
