Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.
The elementary years
45 points separate Country Lane Elementary (69) from Leroy Anderson Elementary (25) — at this level, which school matters more than which district.
45 points separate the strongest and weakest of these 6 elementary schools — the average hides more than it tells.
Country Lane Elementary (69/100) holds the Strong band — 54.6% of its students exceed the state standard, against a level average of 38.0%. 2 schools classify as Strong All-Around — no weak dimension we measure.
45 points separate the top and bottom elementary schools — the district average won't predict the school in front of you.
The middle years
One middle school: Moreland Middle at 51/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.
One dot, one school — there is no spread to read at this level.
Moreland Middle (51/100) holds the Strong band — 32.9% of its students exceed the state standard, against a level average of 32.9%.
The suspension rate averages 5.4% against 3.6% statewide — worth a direct question on a visit.
What it means for your family
Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Country Lane Elementary at 69/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.
No charters or magnets among the ranked schools here, so the main lever is an intra-district transfer — California districts run them on their own windows and criteria. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, ask the district office for this year's dates.
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.
