Pacific Union Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Pacific Union Elementary school district, located in Fresno, CA with about 393 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.

With about 21 teachers, Pacific Union Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 18:1. 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.

As a smaller, rural-serving district, the school focuses on providing a tight-knit educational environment that emphasizes core curriculum development and fundamental learning. Its location in a largely agricultural area of Fresno County often shapes the school's identity, fostering a close relationship between the faculty, the students, and the surrounding families.

The school is dedicated to creating a supportive atmosphere that prioritizes student achievement and character development. By maintaining a smaller campus footprint, Pacific Union Elementary aims to provide personalized attention to its student body, ensuring that children receive a well-rounded foundation before transitioning to middle and high school levels.
