Summary:
Zip code 95538 has one listed elementary school, Redwood Elementary, serving 452 students in grades K–8. In 2025–2026, its all-grades results were mixed against California: science proficiency was 38% at Redwood versus 36% statewide, while ELA was 44% versus 49% and math was 33% versus 38%. The most important takeaway is that science is a relative strength, while ELA and math are below state results.
Because Redwood is the only school in the list, there is no local school-to-school leader or bottom school to compare. Within Redwood, fourth grade stands out: ELA was 60% compared with 46% statewide, and math was 51% compared with 42%. Eighth grade was also above state results in ELA (56% versus 49%) and math (41% versus 36%). In contrast, third-grade ELA was 27% versus 44% statewide, and sixth-grade math was 16% versus 37%. These grade-level differences show why the all-grades averages do not tell the whole story.
Results changed in different directions over the two reported years: Redwood’s science proficiency rose 17 points, from 21% to 38%, while ELA fell 5 points and math fell 2 points; statewide, science rose 3 points, ELA was nearly unchanged, and math rose 1 point. SchoolDigger’s ranking moved from the 54th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 45th in 2025–2026, and its rating changed from 3 stars to 2. Other context includes a student–teacher ratio of 23.2 in 2024–2025 and 59% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 10% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 23% and the state’s 18%; the school’s rate was 8 points below the state and 13 below the district. These figures describe a single school, so they cannot show how Redwood compares with other schools in the zip code.
