Summary

Eastin Arcola is a K–8 school in Madera, California, serving 225 students in Madera Unified. Its most important takeaway is that 2025–26 proficiency was below district and state levels in all three subjects: ELA was 26% versus 33% and 49%, math was 18% versus 20% and 38%, and science was 16% versus 21% and 36%.

Compared with nearby schools, Eastin was third-lowest in ELA and second-lowest in math; its results were closer to the middle in science, ranking fifth-lowest among the 11 schools. Nearby schools averaged 37% in ELA, 29% in math, and 21% in science, compared with Eastin’s 26%, 18%, and 16%. Third-grade ELA is a clear bright spot: Eastin scored 47%, above the state’s 44% and district’s 29%, and only one nearby school scored higher. Sixth grade is a concern: ELA was 13%, the lowest among schools with results for that grade, and math was 7%, versus 37% statewide and 22% districtwide. Fifth-grade science was also low at 5%, compared with 35% statewide.

Scores have improved from last year but remain below their levels from four years ago. From 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell 7 points, math 2 points, and science 2 points, while the gaps to the state widened by 10, 6, and 8 points, respectively. In the latest year, results rose 5 points in ELA, 4 in math, and 11 in science. SchoolDigger ranked Eastin in the 10th percentile statewide, with 0 stars, in 2025–26; its student–teacher ratio was 16.7 in 2024–25, compared with a nearby average of 21.3. The school reported 96% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, versus a nearby average of 89%. SchoolDigger’s older effectiveness ranking for English Language Learner Students was a relative strength: 72nd percentile and 4 stars in 2017–18, compared with the school’s overall 33rd percentile; no later ranking for that group is supplied. For Hispanic Students, the SchoolDigger percentile fell from 42 in 2023–24 to 5 in 2024–25, then rose to 12 in 2025–26; the overall school percentiles were 30, 4, and 10 in those years. Chronic absenteeism also improved, dropping from 61% in 2021–22 to 16% in 2025–26, below the state’s 18% and district’s 23%. Eastin serves K–8 while most nearby schools serve K–6, and small grade cohorts can make grade-level percentages variable.
