Summary

Woodward Leadership Academy is a small K–6 elementary school in San Bernardino, serving 81 students in the San Bernardino City Unified area. The 2025–2026 results show that math is its relative bright spot, but achievement is very low overall. The most concerning finding is that its schoolwide ELA and science proficiency rates were the lowest among Woodward and the 10 nearby schools.

Math was Woodward’s strongest subject: 15% of students were proficient, compared with 26% in the district and 38% statewide; its score was also above two nearby schools, though below their 24% average. ELA proficiency was 3%, versus 39% in the district and 49% statewide, and nearby schools averaged 31%. Science proficiency was 0%, compared with 25% in the district and 36% statewide; nearby schools averaged 19%. Grade-level results also show a specific exception: fifth-grade math proficiency was 25%, above the district’s 21%, while fourth-grade ELA and math, fifth-grade ELA, and fifth-grade science were each 0%.

SchoolDigger ranks Woodward 5,678th of 5,804 California schools, at the 2nd percentile with 0 stars; nearby schools’ percentiles range from 4 to 52. Its recorded percentile rose from 0 in 2014–2015 to 2 in 2025–2026, while the star rating stayed at 0. Chronic absenteeism is also high: 33% in 2025–2026, compared with 29% in the district, 18% statewide, and a 26% nearby-school average. In the same period, district absenteeism had fallen by 15 points since 2021–2022 and the state rate by 12 points. Because academic results are supplied only for 2025–2026, no school-level academic trend is available; Woodward’s 32.4 student–teacher ratio is from 2017–2018, and its only supplied income measure—free/reduced lunch eligible, from the 2015–2018 school years—is not current or comparable with nearby schools’ 2024–2025 figures.
