Summary:
This analysis examines five elementary schools serving grades K-5 in zip code 91739, all part of the highly-ranked Etiwanda Elementary district in the Etiwanda area of California.
John L. Golden Elementary is the clear standout, consistently ranking in the state's top 4% with exceptional test scores across all subjects and the lowest chronic absenteeism in the group. Grapeland Elementary is also a strong performer with the lowest absenteeism rate, while Etiwanda Colony Elementary ranks solidly third. Windrows Elementary and Perdew Elementary perform below the district average, with Perdew showing the highest chronic absenteeism and the lowest test scores.
Interestingly, higher per-student spending does not correlate with better performance here; the top school has the lowest spending. Regular attendance shows a strong link to achievement, with the top three schools having the best attendance. All schools in the district outperform state averages, but significant gaps exist between them, particularly in science proficiency, where the difference between the highest and lowest performers is most pronounced.
