School Overview

Redwood Elementary sits in Shafter, a small agricultural town in the heart of Kern County's San Joaquin Valley, where the community is tight-knit and families tend to put down roots for generations. The school faces some academic headwinds, with test scores in the lower percentiles across English, math, and science, so families who prioritize academics may want to look closely at supplemental support options or enrichment programs outside of school. That said, for families already connected to the Shafter community — drawn by its affordability and its slower-paced, working-class charm compared to bigger Kern County cities — Redwood can be a familiar neighborhood anchor where kids grow up alongside classmates they've known their whole lives.
