Summary

Eric White Elementary is a K–6 school in Selma, California, serving 630 students in Selma Unified. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were below state and district levels in English language arts (ELA), math and science. The clearest concern is science: about 12% of students were proficient, compared with 36% statewide and 19% in the district.

Compared with the six nearby Selma Unified K–6 schools, the school’s standing varies by subject: it ranked fifth of seven in ELA, third in math and third-lowest in science. ELA was a relative bright spot at about 37%, roughly 1 point above the nearby-school average, though still 12 points below the state. Fifth-grade ELA was especially strong at about 51%, above the state’s 49% and second-highest locally. Math proficiency was about 25%, below the nearby average of 30%; sixth-grade math was a particular weak spot at 18%, the lowest among the seven schools. Science proficiency, about 12%, was also below the nearby average of 20%. Nearby James Garfield Elementary is a notable contrast: it reached about 53% in ELA, 62% in math and 41% in science.

ELA has improved steadily, rising from about 31% in 2022–23 to 37% in 2025–26, while its gap with the state narrowed by 3 points. Math fell about 4 points overall and science about 7; their state gaps widened by 7 and 13 points, respectively. SchoolDigger places the school at the 29th percentile in California and gives it 1 star for 2025–26. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 23.8, close to the nearby-school average of 23.4. The school reported 94% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25; California provides free school meals to all students, but this is the school’s reported eligibility measure. In SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how effectively schools serve each group, the school ranked at the 62nd percentile for English Language Learner students and 76th for Migrant students in 2023–24—33 and 47 points above its overall standing; these subgroup figures are older than its latest overall ranking.
