Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.
The elementary years
One elementary school: San Carlos Charter Learning Center at 68/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.

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.
1 of the 3 ranked schools is a charter — 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.
