Franklin Elementary

Modesto, CA · Grades TK-6 · 777 students · Modesto City Elementary

Kids show up — absenteeism runs far below the state. But this year's 5th graders test below its 3rd graders.

31% of tested students are Proficient or Advanced in English and 25% in math. Explore the evidence alongside the opportunities your child would use.

What this means for your family

Ask whether the low absenteeism and suspension numbers come from what the school does or from the community it serves — both can produce the same numbers, and only a visit tells you which.

Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025

Climbed from the 9th to the 28th percentile since 2019 — past roughly 900 elementary schools.

Most rating sites would stop at “28% proficient” and call it done. Franklin deserves a closer read. Four in five of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

The headline number: 4.1% chronic absenteeism — versus 17.9% statewide. Attendance is the quietest strong signal a school can post.

Franklin Elementary scores 28 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 28th percentile of 5,721 California elementary schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

The pandemic drop is behind this school: 28% of students meet the standard today, above the 22% who did in 2019.

State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25

California's own growth model splits here — the 60th percentile in reading against the 30th in math, among elementary schools.

Context — never part of the Scope Score

California runs its own growth model, following individual children in grades 4 through 8 rather than comparing school-wide averages the way we do — and its two subjects part company here. It puts this school around the 60th percentile of California elementary schools in reading and the 30th in math; ours, which blends the subjects, lands around the 46th. A gap that size between reading and math in one building is worth asking about directly — one year of data can't tell you whether it is the teaching, the cohort, or noise.

— pts vs expected is scale-score points above or below what California's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores. It is not a percentage and not a percent of anything. A typical California elementary school lands at +2 in reading, and the middle half of them fall between −5 and +9 — the spread is wide, so read the rank, not the sign. CDE blends two consecutive years into each published figure, so adjacent years share input data and no year-over-year trend can honestly be drawn from them. It covers grades 4-8 only, and it is not part of the Scope Score — we assessed it and left it out: it tracks school demographics roughly three times as strongly as our own growth measure does, and one published year is not enough to test how stable it is.

California follows these children individually and predicts each one's score from their own prior year. Each row is read against the same group at a typical California elementary school — not against zero, and not against this school's all-students figure, because the state's expectation already differs by group.

— 3 more groups are reported here with between 11 and 29 students. We hold those back on purpose: at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own, and a quarter of such groups land past the state's top or bottom cut point by chance alone. They are listed with their student counts in the data appendix. — A group not listed at all had fewer than 11 students with a growth score, so California published nothing for it here. That is a privacy protection, not a judgment about those students. — Context only. None of this enters the Scope Score.

Worth knowing

At 777 students, this school is well above the typical California elementary school (≈480).

Transitional kindergarten is offered here — confirmed by actual Census Day enrollment, not just the listed grade span.

On the state's science test (CAST), 11% met or exceeded the standard — science is tested in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school, and it never enters the Scope Score.

Worth a school visit

  • Ask what changes between grade 3 and grade 5 here, and who teaches the older kids.
  • Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
  • Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
  • Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
  • Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.
Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Franklin Elementary a good elementary school?
Franklin Elementary has a Scope Score of 28 out of 100, placing it in the 28th percentile of California elementary schools and ranked #4,097 statewide. 8.9% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 12.5 percentage points below the California average of 21.4%. The Scope Score weights 6 dimensions for elementary schools: exceeded standard (42%), met or exceeded (proficient) (23%), grade 3-to-5 growth (20%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Franklin Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 27.7% of students at Franklin Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 8.9% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 18.9% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 8.9% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 634 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Franklin Elementary rank in California?
Franklin Elementary ranks #4,097 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 28th percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), same-cohort growth (2023 G3 → 2025 G5), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
Is Franklin Elementary getting better or worse?
SchoolScope follows the same cohort of students across grades rather than comparing two different grades in the same year. At Franklin Elementary that cohort is 2023 G3 → 2025 G5, measured in SBAC scale-score points. Its gain ranks below avg among California elementary schools — roughly the 46th percentile, behind the typical school at this level. Read the ranking, not the raw point gain: scale scores rise with age, so nearly every school posts a positive number and only the relative position tells you anything. Growth is weighted at 20% in the elementary Scope Score because it is the least demographically confounded signal available — it tracks change over time rather than the level students arrived at. See full methodology.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Franklin Elementary?
4.1% of students at Franklin Elementary are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), which is better than the California average of 17.9%. The suspension rate is 1.4%, indicating a low-discipline-incident environment. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Franklin Elementary compare to other schools in Modesto?
Franklin Elementary scores 28/100 (28th percentile) among California elementary schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 777 students. Use the schools in Modesto page or the map view to compare all elementary schools nearby.
How does Franklin Elementary serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Franklin Elementary in Modesto, 31.2% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 29.7% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Franklin Elementary outperforms its district average for low-income students by 1.5 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (22.1% Math proficient); Hispanic students (31.1% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 21.5 percentage points for disabilities students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 414 students tested. SchoolScope shows disaggregated test scores by demographic subgroup so you can see how a school performs for your child's specific group — not just the school-wide average. Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.
What middle school does Franklin Elementary feed into?
By attendance boundary, Franklin Elementary is zoned to Mark Twain Junior High. Boundaries come from the U.S. Department of Education's School Attendance Boundary Survey, a 2015-16 collection and the most recent national one — they are approximate and may since have changed. A boundary is also not a placement guarantee: magnet, charter, open-enrollment and inter-district transfer options mean students from one school often continue to several different ones. Confirm your address with the district before making an enrollment or housing decision. Data source: NCES School Attendance Boundary Survey, analyzed by SchoolScope.

What the score weighs · CAASPP 2024–25

Attendance carries this score. The test levels sit just under the state's.

4.1% chronic absenteeism — versus 17.9% statewide. Attendance is the quietest strong signal a school can post.

The school's returning cohort — mostly, not exactly, the same kids two years on — gained 73 scale-score points across the span. Almost every school gains points, so we rank the gain against every other California school in this level.

A closer look at the evidence

Franklin Elementary: reading the evidence

Franklin has real strengths and one number that complicates them. Most rating sites show you one or the other. Both belong on the same page.

Subject proficiency describes tested students, while graduation describes a graduating cohort. These figures are not successive stages followed by the same students.

Ask whether the low absenteeism and suspension numbers come from what the school does or from the community it serves — both can produce the same numbers, and only a visit tells you which.

Grade gap = this year's grade 3 vs grade 5 result, two different sets of students, not a trend for any one child — it is not the measurement the Scope Score's growth dimension uses. See §01 above and /methodology#verdicts for the school's actual scored (cohort) growth.

Whole scale-score points above or below what CDE's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores — not a percentage, not a percentile. Statewide a typical school lands near +1 with a spread of about 13 points either side, so read a figure against its group's own typical value, not against zero. Muted rows have fewer than 30 students with a growth score — published by CDE, held back from the narrative sections above because at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own. “Not categorised” is CDE assigning no band — English Only, Recently Reclassified, and English Learners Only receive a value and no band, for every school in the state. It is not a missing number. Most figures blend two consecutive years, so adjacent published years share input data and no trend line can honestly be drawn across them. A group absent from this table had fewer than 11 students with a growth score and was never published. Grades 4-8 only. None of this enters the Scope Score — it is more strongly correlated with school demographics than our own growth measure, and one published year is not enough to test its reliability.
