Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.
The elementary years
The elementary schools average 29.6/100 — 9.3 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.
All 2 elementary schools land within 2 points — the average is a fair summary here.
New Pacific Charter - Roseville is the strongest option at 30/100 — 13.4% of its students exceed the state standard.
The suspension rate averages 3.0% against 1.6% statewide — worth a direct question on a visit.
The high school years
65 points separate Granite Bay High (77) from Adelante High (Continuation) (12) — at this level, which school matters more than which district.
65 points separate the strongest and weakest of these 8 high schools — the average hides more than it tells.
1 continuation/alternative school not plotted — it ranks within its own class, not on this statewide axis.
Granite Bay High (77/100) holds the Strong band — 42.0% of its students exceed the state standard, against a level average of 21.6%. 3 schools classify as Strong All-Around — no weak dimension we measure.
65 points separate the top and bottom high schools — the district average won't predict the school in front of you.
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.
2 of the 10 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.

Top scorers at each level — not necessarily one zoned sequence. Confirm feeder patterns and enrollment zones with the district, and visit before you decide.
