Goal 3 isn’t shown because it tracks other measures.
Figures from CDE’s state test, chronic absence and suspension files. Test figures cover every grade the district tests (California tests grades 3–8 and 11), so they differ from a profile’s rated grades. We combined the district’s schools ourselves, weighted by students and leaving out charter schools. Chronically absent means a student missed 10% or more of school days.

The district’s state records
Is the state giving the district extra help?

From spring 2025 to spring 2026, 43% of the district’s English learners moved up at least one level on the state’s English test (ELPAC), or stayed at the top (360 of 840 students). California: 47%. It counts students moving up the test’s levels, so a student can count here before becoming fluent.
Elementary: Sheppard Elementary, 41st percentile (Developing). Middle: Roseland Charter, 39th percentile (Developing). High: Roseland Charter, 20th percentile (Needs Support).

Does living in the Roseland district decide which school my child attends?
Not by itself. Attendance boundaries, programs, transfers and space all matter. Confirm the school for your address, grade and program with the district.
