Summary

Located in Sanger, California, Wilson Elementary serves 448 students in grades K–6 and is part of Sanger Unified. In 2025–26, 31% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 24% in math, and 14% in science—below both state and district rates in every subject. Most importantly, Wilson had the lowest all-grades proficiency rates in all three subjects among the 10 nearby schools in the comparison.

Math is Wilson’s strongest subject compared with the state and district, while science is its weakest against both: its state gaps were 15 points in math and 22 in science, and its district gaps were 20 points in math and 25 in science. Compared with nearby-school averages of 53% in ELA, 46% in math, and 32% in science, Wilson was behind by 22, 22, and 18 points, respectively; ELA was marginally closest and math marginally furthest behind. At the grade level, third grade was a relative bright spot, with 40% proficiency in ELA and 34% in math. Fourth-grade ELA was 22%, and fifth-grade math was 13%.

ELA and math have improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 7 points and math 5, while science rose just 1 point overall and its gap with the state widened by 5 points. SchoolDigger placed Wilson at the 23rd percentile with 1 star in 2025–26, up from the 6th percentile and 0 stars in 2023–24, but the other nearby schools ranged from the 42nd to the 83rd percentile; Jackson Elementary was next-lowest at the 42nd percentile. Wilson’s 27:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25 was the highest locally, compared with an average of about 22:1 at the other schools. Also in 2024–25, 94% of Wilson students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the highest rate among nearby schools. Chronic absenteeism fell from 38% in 2021–22 to 14% in 2025–26, slightly above the district’s 13%. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students percentile, a measure of how well the school serves that group, fell from 65 in 2022–23 to 10 in 2023–24; no later subgroup ranking is shown.
