Fletcher Walker Elementary

Public Grades K-8
Summary

Fletcher Walker Elementary serves 128 students in grades K–8 in Westwood, California. In 2025–2026, 43% of students were chronically absent, compared with 18% statewide and an average of 18% at nearby Chester Elementary and Greenville Elementary. Its all-grades proficiency was 24% in English language arts (ELA), 25% in math and 12% in science; each result was below both nearby schools and the state. Most importantly, the school’s current proficiency is behind nearby schools in every tested subject and below the state in all three.

Math is a relative strength: Fletcher Walker’s 25% was 13 percentage points below the state, but 4 points above Westwood Unified. ELA was slightly above the district, and science matched it. Still, the nearby-school averages were higher in ELA (39%), math (39%) and science (22%). Grade 4 math stands out positively: 60% proficiency was 18 points above the state and higher than at Chester and Greenville. By grade 8, proficiency was 11% in ELA, math and science—below the state by 39, 26 and 24 points, respectively. Chester and Greenville serve only through grade 6, so there is no nearby-school comparison for grades 7–8.

ELA has declined over time, from 41% in 2022–2023 to 24% in 2025–2026, while the state rose from 47% to 49%; the gap widened by 20 percentage points. Chronic absenteeism also rose 6 points since 2021–2022 as the state rate fell 12 points. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 21.1, between Chester’s 22.2 and Greenville’s 16.7; 76.6% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger rated Fletcher Walker at the 45th percentile with 2 stars in 2024–2025, versus the district’s 4th percentile and 0 stars. Its 2021–2022 statewide ranking for how well it served White students was notably lower: the 16th percentile, compared with the school’s 45th-percentile overall standing that year.
