Summary

Kimberly Elementary is a high-performing K-5 public school serving 457 students in the Redlands Unified district, consistently ranking in the top quartile of California elementary schools.

Academically, Kimberly stands out in the district, with student proficiency rates notably higher than both district and state averages, especially in mathematics. The school maintains a strong and consistent record over time, outperforming many nearby schools like Mentone Elementary and Lugonia Elementary in core subjects. Furthermore, Kimberly has a significantly lower rate of chronic student absenteeism compared to the district and schools such as Franklin Elementary, indicating a healthy and engaging school environment.

While the school serves a student population with a lower percentage qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch than many area schools, its academic results are strong across diverse student groups. The school achieves these outcomes efficiently, with per-student spending comparable to other schools. An area for potential growth is support for Special Education students, whose performance has recently declined. Overall, alongside Mariposa Elementary, Kimberly represents a cluster of effective schools within Redlands Unified that deliver reliable academic excellence.
