Summary

Woodrow Wilson Elementary serves 335 students in kindergarten through grade 6 in Selma, in Selma Unified. In 2025–2026, its proficiency rates were below California’s in ELA, math and science, making below-state performance across all three subjects the clearest concern.

Math is the school’s strongest subject relative to its benchmarks, while ELA is its weakest local result. Math proficiency was 25%, compared with 27% in the district and 38% statewide; among nearby K–6 schools with scores, Woodrow Wilson ranked fifth of nine and was close to their 26% average. In ELA, its 29% was below the district’s 40%, the state’s 49% and nearby schools’ 34% average; it ranked sixth of nine. Science was 16%, compared with 19% in the district and 36% statewide, but its fourth-place local ranking of nine was stronger than in the other subjects. Third-grade ELA is a particular concern: 18% proficiency was below the district’s 35% and state’s 44%, and was the lowest among the district’s K–6 schools. The next-lowest result was 26% at Terry Elementary.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: ELA rose 6 percentage points, math 9 and science 9, though science fell 8 points in the latest year. SchoolDigger rates Woodrow Wilson 1 star, at the 21st percentile in 2025–2026; that is up from the 13th percentile in 2022–2023, but still a low statewide standing. Its 20.8 students per teacher in 2024–2025 was the lowest reported ratio among nearby schools, yet its scores remained below nearby-school averages. The school reported that 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; this is context, not an explanation for results. One subgroup stands out: in 2023–2024, SchoolDigger ranked English Language Learner Students at the 69th percentile (rank 974 of 3,162), 47 percentile points above the school’s overall 22nd percentile that year.
