Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.
The elementary years
The elementary schools sit at the state line (37.4 vs 38.9) — the 10-point school-to-school spread is where the choice lives.
All 2 elementary schools land within 10 points — the average is a fair summary here.
Students are showing up: chronic absenteeism runs 4.1% against a state average of 17.9%.
Only 2 campuses at this level — one school's year moves every number in this chapter.
The middle years
One middle school: Hickman Middle at 47/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.
One dot, one school — there is no spread to read at this level.
The level averages 46.8/100 — 8.2 points above the state average.
One campus is the whole sample — a single year's cohort moves every number in this chapter.
What it means for your family
Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. Every ranked elementary school here is a charter or magnet, so the application matters more than the address — see the next card.
3 of the 3 ranked schools are charters — enrollment paths that don't depend on your address. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, those lotteries and applications are the levers worth the paperwork.
A band is a position, not a prophecy — a school's number can move without your kid's experience moving with it. Ask your school two questions: what happens for a kid who arrives behind, and what the classroom looks like for one who arrives ahead.
