Annual results and the full academic record
Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025

Has stayed near the 20th percentile since 2019.

Most rating sites would stop at “19% proficient” and call it done. Kohl Open deserves a closer read. Two in five of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

Test scores are one lens, and at this school they're a rough one right now. The sections below show the fuller picture — including the parts that are working.

155 tested · 3 of 3 grades published · no cohort tracked

Kohl Open Elementary scores 24 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 20th percentile of 5,721 California elementary schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

This school hasn't fully recovered from the pandemic: 19% meet the standard today, versus 26% in 2019 — a gap worth asking about on a visit.

California’s growth results and student groups
State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25

California's own growth model places it near the 37th percentile of elementary schools.

Context — never part of the Scope Score

California runs its own growth model — it follows individual children in grades 4 through 8 and compares each one against a prediction from their own prior scores. On that measure this school sits a little below the middle of California elementary schools in reading and math together. We show it; we don't score it.

— 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.

Low-income students here meet the ELA standard behind the same group statewide.

At Kohl Open Elementary in Stockton, 18.9% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 27.1% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Kohl Open Elementary trails its district average for low-income students by 8.1 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (16.2% Math proficient); Hispanic students (18.8% ELA proficient). Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 37 students tested.

Low-income students here trail the state average for their group by 19 points in ELA — worth asking how the school is closing that gap.

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.

It spends $13,498 per student, less than the California average.

Context — never part of the Scope Score

These measure different things: this figure is spending attributed to this campus, while district-wide figures also include central administration, districtwide programs, and the state's pension contributions made on the district's behalf — costs that never get assigned to a single school. The district number runs higher at nearly every school, not just this one.

$1,567 per student arrives as federal Title funding — a measure of concentrated need, not school quality.

Worth a school visit

Ask what changed in the last two years, and what the school is asking families for. Growth shows up in these numbers a year or two after it shows up in classrooms.

  • 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 Kohl Open Elementary a good elementary school?
Kohl Open Elementary has a Scope Score of 24 out of 100, placing it in the 20th percentile of California elementary schools and ranked #4,589 statewide. 6.1% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 15.3 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 Kohl Open Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 19.3% of students at Kohl Open Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 6.1% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 13.2% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 6.1% 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. 150 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Kohl Open Elementary rank in California?
Kohl Open Elementary ranks #4,589 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 20th percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), grade-level growth (Grade 3 to grade 5 growth), 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.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Kohl Open Elementary?
12.4% of students at Kohl Open 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 0.3%, 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 Kohl Open Elementary compare to other schools in Stockton?
Kohl Open Elementary scores 24/100 (20th 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 221 students. Use the schools in Stockton page or the map view to compare all elementary schools nearby.
How does Kohl Open Elementary serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Kohl Open Elementary in Stockton, 18.9% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 27.1% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Kohl Open Elementary trails its district average for low-income students by 8.1 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (16.2% Math proficient); Hispanic students (18.8% ELA proficient). Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 37 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.

A closer look at the evidence

Kohl Open Elementary: reading the evidence

Kohl Open posts low test scores — and suspensions run below the state rate (0.3% vs 1.6%). If this is your zoned school, the numbers below are where to start a conversation, not where to end one.

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.

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.
