Summary

Jellick Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 376 students in the Rowland Unified School District in Rowland Heights, California, notable for its significant and steady academic improvement in recent years.

While its current state ranking is in the middle, Jellick stands out for its clear upward trajectory, having climbed from a lower-performing school to a solid 3-star rating, even as some nearby schools like Rowland Elementary and Yorbita Elementary have seen declines. The school demonstrates exceptional strength in supporting specific student groups, achieving top-tier results for homeless students and strong, consistent outcomes for English Language Learners and students from low-income families. This effectiveness with high-needs populations is a key differentiator, even as the school works to bring overall test scores in math and science closer to state averages.

Jellick operates with higher per-student spending than comparable schools in the area, which may support its specialized programs and improving attendance rates. Parents should note an unusual pattern in math scores, with a strong performance in 3rd grade, a sharp drop in 5th, and a recovery in 6th, suggesting a potential focus area. Compared to the wide performance variation among other Rowland Unified schools nearby—from top performers like Shelyn Elementary to struggling ones—Jellick's story is one of a resilient turnaround school building expertise in serving its community.
