Summary

Wright Elementary is a Santa Rosa school serving 456 students in kindergarten through sixth grade, among 11 nearby schools in the comparison. In 2025–2026, its proficiency was 25% in English language arts (ELA), 20% in math and 16% in science; it ranked below the state in all three subjects. The most important concern is the sharp recent ELA decline, which left the school 25 percentage points below the state.

Across the nearby group, Wright ranked seventh of 11 in ELA and eighth of 11 in math and science. Its scores were 8 points below the nearby average in ELA, 7 in math and 6 in science. Science was its closest result to the district, at 11 points below, while ELA was furthest behind, at 20 points below; compared with the state, math was closest, 18 points behind. A notable grade-level weakness is fifth-grade math: 5% of students were proficient, compared with 14% at Roseland Creek Elementary and 3% at Abraham Lincoln Elementary. Sixth-grade ELA was Wright’s strongest grade-level result at 37%, though still below the state’s 48% and district’s 47%.

Results over time show a mixed picture: ELA fell from 37% in 2022–2023 to 25% in 2025–2026, including a 10-point drop in the latest year, while math and science made modest gains over the past three years. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking fell from the 32nd percentile and 2 stars in 2023–2024 to the 15th percentile and 1 star in 2025–2026. Context includes a 20.8 student-teacher ratio and 78% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger ranked English Language Learner Students at the 51st percentile in 2023–2024, above the school’s overall 32nd percentile that year. Its Male Students ranking fell from the 38th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 8th in 2025–2026, below the school’s overall 15th percentile; these rankings are comparative assessments, not direct measures of individual students’ outcomes.
