Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025
Climbed from the 5th to the 15th percentile since 2019 — past roughly 400 elementary schools.
A missing score is not a judgment, and it is not a claim about what the state published. It means the composite a Scope Score, band and rank are all built from isn't on file for this school this year — the honest move is to say so, and to show whatever results are on file rather than guess at a number.
Proficiency here is back to its pre-pandemic level — 7% meet the standard, about where the school stood in 2019.

Teacher experience
Average teacher experience in the published staffing record. It does not measure individual teacher effectiveness.
Chronically absent

The road from this school ends at Marshall (Thurgood) High, which sent 5 graduates to UC campuses last fall and teaches 5 AP subjects. Those numbers describe past cohorts — a child starting here today would reach Marshall (Thurgood) High around 2035, and 10 years is a long time for a school to hold still, and by the state's 2023 count 57% of Marshall (Thurgood) High's graduates enrolled in college somewhere, UC or not.

Plan your next step
What should I do next?
Worth a school visit
With no score to read, a visit does the heavy lifting: ask about class sizes, teacher tenure, and where last year's students went next.
- Ask about typical class sizes and the student-teacher ratio.
- Ask how long teachers have stayed at the school.
- Ask where recent graduates or transfers went next.
- Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom, and watch how a lesson actually runs.
Use the published evidence to prepare questions, then verify fit and access with the school.

Lee (Edwin and Anita) Newcomer: reading the evidence
Lee (Edwin and Anita) Newcomer is an elementary school in San Francisco. We publish no Scope Score, band or rank for it this year — the composite they are all built from isn't on file. Here's what we can show.
Subject proficiency describes tested students, while graduation describes a graduating cohort. These figures are not successive stages followed by the same students.
