GRENADA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Grenada Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Grenada Elementary school district, located in Grenada, CA with about 205 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 10 teachers, Grenada Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 20:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Grenada Elementary School, located at 516 Shasta Blvd. in Grenada, California, serves as the primary educational hub for the small, rural community of Grenada in Siskiyou County. As a K-8 institution, the school provides a foundational learning environment for children ranging from kindergarten through eighth grade. Its remote location in Northern California allows it to function as a tight-knit community school, often characterized by smaller class sizes and a focus on personalized attention for students within the local district.

The school operates under the Grenada Elementary School District and acts as a central gathering point for families in the area. Because of its size and geographic setting, the campus typically emphasizes a supportive and communal atmosphere where staff and local families maintain strong, long-standing connections. As the only school in the district, it plays a vital role in preparing local students for their transition to regional high schools, acting as the bedrock of the town's educational identity.
