Summary

Kingswood K-8 is a 546-student school serving kindergarten through eighth grade in Citrus Heights, within San Juan Unified. Its 2025–26 results were below district and state averages in every tested subject: 24% in ELA, 14% in math and 15% in science, compared with 40%, 29% and 31% in the district, and 49%, 38% and 36% statewide. The most important finding is that academic results are broadly low, not limited to one subject.

Among ten nearby schools, Kingswood was third-lowest in ELA, lowest in math and second-lowest in science; its results also fell below nearby averages of 41% in ELA, 36% in math and 33% in science. ELA is its closest subject to the nearby group, while math is the furthest behind. The middle-school comparison is especially concerning: against the only nearby K–8 comparison, Orangevale Open K-8, Kingswood’s eighth-grade results were 14% in ELA, 4% in math and 6% in science, versus 51%, 52% and 42%. Most nearby schools serve lower grades, so this upper-grade comparison is limited to Orangevale.

Results have improved modestly since 2022–23: ELA rose from 22% to 24% and math from 10% to 14%, while science slipped slightly from 15.3% to 15.0%; the state gap widened by 6 points in science. Chronic absenteeism has fallen from 53% in 2021–22 to 26% in 2025–26, but remains above the district’s 21% and state’s 18%. SchoolDigger rates Kingswood at the 9th percentile with 0 stars for 2025–26, down from the 12th percentile and 1 star in prior years. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio of 20 was the lowest among nearby schools with reported figures, while its 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible share was 81%, second-highest among nearby schools with the same measure and year. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students subgroup ranking was notably higher than the overall ranking: 38th percentile in 2023–24 versus 12th overall, suggesting stronger relative standing for this group.
