Summary

Fair Oaks Ranch Community Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 866 students in Santa Clarita's Sulphur Springs Union district, consistently performing above state averages in core subjects despite serving a student population with significant economic need.

Academically, the school is a solid performer, with 55% of students proficient in English and 47% in math, outperforming the state and many nearby schools like Valley View Community Elementary and Canyon Springs Community Elementary. It manages student attendance well, with a chronic absenteeism rate better than the state average and several district neighbors. A notable finding is the school's cost efficiency; it spends significantly less per student than other schools in its district, such as Sulphur Springs Community Elementary, while maintaining competitive results.

The most interesting comparison is with its close neighbor, Golden Oak Community, which outperforms Fair Oaks Ranch in nearly every metric, including test scores and attendance. While Fair Oaks Ranch shows particular strength with certain student subgroups, it faces challenges with others, such as English Language Learners. The school's performance has gradually declined in statewide ranking over the past decade, corresponding with an increase in student economic need, yet it remains a dependable option that achieves solid academic outcomes with efficient use of resources.
