Summary

Woodrow Wilson Elementary is a K–5 school in Daly City’s Jefferson Elementary School District, serving 266 students in a community with several nearby elementary-school options. Its most important challenge is that 2025–2026 proficiency was below state, district and nearby-school averages in all three tested subjects, with the largest gap in English language arts (ELA).

ELA proficiency was 32%, compared with 49% statewide, 47% in the Jefferson Elementary district and a 39% average at ten nearby schools; it was second-lowest among those schools. Math was 29%, 9 points below the state, 11 below the district and 8 below the nearby average of 38%. Science was 24%, 12 points below the state, 5 below the district and 3 below the nearby average of 27%; it ranked fifth among nearby schools. Fourth-grade math is a relative bright spot: 40% proficiency was just 2 points below the state, and tied for fourth among nearby schools. Third-grade ELA and math, by contrast, were each about 20 points below state rates.

Results have weakened against state benchmarks overall, though math and science have fluctuated: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 7 points, math fell 2 and science rose 2, while the latest year brought declines of 3, 14 and 21 points, respectively. SchoolDigger places the school at the 30th statewide percentile with 1 star. Its 22.1 student–teacher ratio is close to the nearby average of 22.0. In 2024–2025, 61% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible, 6 points above the nearby-school average. Attendance is a relative positive: chronic absenteeism was 17.6% in 2025–2026, compared with 18.3% statewide. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Hispanic students fell from the 53rd percentile in 2024–2025 to the 12th in 2025–2026, while the overall school percentile declined from 53 to 30.
