Most rating sites would stop at “72% proficient” and call it done. Rocklin Academy Gateway deserves a closer read. It sits at the 89th percentile of 5,744 California elementary schools — but the ranking is the least interesting thing on this page.
The headline number: 57.5% of low-income students met the ELA standard — versus 38.2% for the same group statewide.
As a charter, Rocklin Academy Gateway enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
