Summary

Arrowhead Elementary is a 248-student K–6 school in San Bernardino, part of San Bernardino City Unified. Its latest all-grade results are below state averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, though science is much closer to the state level. Attendance is the most urgent local concern: 39% of students were chronically absent in 2025–26, the highest rate among the 10 nearby schools.

Science is the school’s clearest academic strength compared with nearby schools, the district, and the state. In 2025–26, 34% of students were proficient in science—about 2 points below the state, 10 points above the district, and above the nearby-school average of 22%; this ranked third among the 11 schools. ELA proficiency was 34%, 15 points below the state and 5 below the district, while math was 20%, 19 points below the state and 6 below the district. Both subjects ranked seventh among the 11 schools. Results also vary by grade: fifth-grade ELA was 45%, above the district’s 39%, while fourth-grade math was 13%, below the district’s 27% and the lowest among comparable nearby schools.

Results have improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 21 percentage points, math 10 points, and science 32 points, although all three remain below state averages. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 27th statewide percentile with 1 star for 2025–26, up from the 2nd percentile in 2022–23; the district is at the 25th percentile with 1 star. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings offer comparatively favorable signals for male students, at the 42nd percentile, and Hispanic students, at the 41st percentile, compared with 27th overall. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 19, below the nearby-school average of 21. The school’s 2024–25 measure was 97% free/reduced lunch eligible, higher than the nearby-school range of 82.1%–95.3%; these figures provide context, not an explanation for academic results.
