Summary

Brook Hill Elementary is a public K-6 school serving 279 students in the Santa Rosa Elementary district, which faces significant academic challenges across the region.

The school consistently ranks in the bottom 10-20% of California elementary schools, with only about 17% of students proficient in English and Math, a rate far below both district and state averages. This low performance is a persistent trend over the past decade. A major contributing factor is a chronic absenteeism rate of 31.2%, which is much higher than nearby schools like Proctor Terrace Elementary (12.6%) and significantly above the state average. The school serves a student population with high economic need, with over 80% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, Brook Hill spends more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio than several higher-performing schools in the area, such as Santa Rosa French-American Charter (SRFACS). This indicates that resources alone are not determining outcomes. While the district overall ranks low, there is wide variation, with some schools like Luther Burbank Elementary—which has a similar student demographic—achieving better results, suggesting school-specific practices and strategies play a critical role in student success.
