School Overview

Samuel Kennedy Elementary sits in the southern Sacramento area, part of the sprawling Elk Grove Unified District that serves families across some of the region's most diverse and rapidly growing neighborhoods. The school faces some academic headwinds, with test scores below state averages in English and math, making it a better fit for families who are actively engaged in supplementing their child's education at home or through tutoring. Sacramento's 95828 zip code is an affordable, working-class corner of the city with easy access to Elk Grove's newer developments, and families who prioritize community ties and diversity over top-tier academics may find it a comfortable place to put down roots.
