Nokomis Elementary

This school is a part of Ukiah Unified School District

Ukiah Unified School District is currently classified as Distressed due to a combination of declining enrollment, significant budget-induced staff reductions, and systemic academic underperformance where nearly half the schools rank in the bottom tier of the state. While the district maintains some strong extracurricular and vocational programs, these are overshadowed by high-profile staff arrests and safety concerns that have strained community trust. With math and reading proficiency rates trailing state averages by double digits and both middle schools reaching critical lows (2/10), the district's operational health is precarious despite pockets of individual school success.
