Summary

Dr. Edward Fitzgerald Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 414 students in the Rialto Unified School District, which ranks in the lower half of districts statewide.

The school has a significant strength in student attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 10.8% that is much better than the district and state averages and compares favorably to nearby schools like Mango Elementary (24.5%) and Locust Elementary (29.5%). Academically, the school's performance is below state averages, but it is showing promising improvement in English Language Arts. However, it faces a serious challenge in effectively serving its special education students, ranking in the bottom 2% of schools statewide in this area.

Compared to other schools in Rialto Unified, there is wide variation in performance. For example, W.J.C. Trapp Elementary, located just over two miles away, achieves significantly higher math proficiency and overall ranking. Dr. Edward Fitzgerald Elementary also spends more per student than its district peers, yet this has not led to superior academic results, suggesting factors like teaching quality or specific programs are critical differentiators.
