Summary

Sequoia Elementary serves 408 students in grades K–6 in Sacramento, in a nearby-school group that includes elementary and K–8 schools. Its clearest distinction is academic strength compared with nearby schools: it leads in ELA and ranks second in math and science among all nearby schools with 2025–26 results.

Sequoia’s results are stronger than its district’s in all three subjects and close to the state’s: ELA proficiency was 49%, about 1 point below the state and 7 above Sacramento City Unified; math was 40%, 1 point above the state and 7 above the district; science was 35%, 1 point below the state and 5 above the district. Among six nearby same-district K–6 schools, Sequoia had the highest ELA and science results and the second-highest math result. Third grade was a standout, with ELA at 49% and math at 60%, both the highest among nearby schools with comparable results. The main weak spot is math in grades four and five: results were 30% and 26%, respectively, 12 and 11 points below state levels.

Results have improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 8 percentage points, math 9, and science 10; math moved from below the state to above it, while ELA and science are now close to state levels. SchoolDigger ranks Sequoia at the 58th percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 41st percentile in 2021–22 and just above nearby Golden Empire Elementary at the 57th percentile. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking is notably higher for Hispanic students, at the 75th percentile, and lower for Multi-racial students, at the 7th percentile. Chronic absenteeism declined from 47% in 2021–22 to 25% in 2025–26, but remains above the state’s 18%. For context, the 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 20.4, tied with nearby James Marshall Elementary; 64% of Sequoia students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. These figures provide context, not explanations for the school’s results.
