School Overview

Tucked into the rolling foothills of Placer County, Newcastle Elementary serves a tight-knit rural community where families tend to put down roots and stay. The school punches well above average across English, math, and science, making it a solid choice for families drawn to the quieter pace of foothill living without sacrificing academic quality. If you're considering the Newcastle area — think oak-lined roads, small-town charm, and easy access to both Auburn and the Sacramento Valley — this K-8 school offers the kind of close community feel that's hard to find in larger suburban districts.
