Better than 15% of California elementary schools

Summary

Kelseyville Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 543 students in the Kelseyville Unified district, which serves a high-need community in Lake County where most schools face significant academic challenges.

The school ranks in the bottom 15% of California elementary schools, with proficiency rates in English, math, and science well below state averages, and it shows a concerning pattern where student performance drops sharply between 3rd and 5th grade. However, it performs slightly better than its district peer, Riviera Elementary, and has made real progress in reducing chronic student absenteeism, now having a better attendance rate than nearby schools like Upper Lake Elementary and Lucerne Elementary. A key strength is its effective program for Special Education students, which ranks significantly higher than the school's overall performance.

Compared to the highest-performing school in the area, Cobb Mountain Elementary, Kelseyville spends more per student but has much lower test scores, a pattern seen across the region where high spending in districts like Konocti Unified does not correlate with better results. The school faces a major challenge with a large performance gap between male and female students, and while its struggles are shared by most schools in the region, its success with Special Education and improving attendance are positive signs of what can be achieved.
