Summary

El Dorado Elementary serves 128 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in San Francisco and is part of San Francisco Unified. The clearest concern for families is attendance: in 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism reached 59%, the highest rate among nearby schools, compared with 33% districtwide and 18% statewide. The next-highest nearby rate was 51% at Harte (Bret) Elementary, and El Dorado’s rate had risen 14 percentage points from the previous year.

Academic proficiency is low compared with nearby schools, the district and the state. In 2025–2026, 14% of El Dorado students were proficient in ELA, 14% in math and 6% in science; the district rates were 54%, 46% and 44%, and state rates were 49%, 38% and 36%, respectively. Math is the school’s strongest subject relative to state and district results, with the smallest gaps, while ELA has the largest gaps. Even so, nearby comparisons are near the bottom: El Dorado ranked fourth-lowest of 11 schools in ELA and fifth-lowest in math, and tied for third-lowest of 10 in science. Fourth grade was especially weak, with 0% proficiency in both ELA and math, lower than every nearby school with results for that grade.

Results have improved in math over time, but progress is uneven: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, math proficiency rose 9 percentage points and ELA rose 4, while science fell 2 points. SchoolDigger rates El Dorado at the 4th percentile with 0 stars for 2025–2026, compared with the district’s 55th percentile and 3 stars. The school is also the smallest nearby, with 128 students versus 135 at the next-smallest, KIPP Bayview Elementary, and its 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio of 32 was higher than the nearby range of 15.1 to 27.3. As context, 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, below the 77% average at the other nearby schools; this comparison does not explain the academic results.
