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 (34.4 vs 38.9) — the 19-point school-to-school spread is where the choice lives.
5 elementary schools span 19 points around an average of 34.4.
Lake Marie Elementary is the strongest option at 46/100 — 18.8% of its students exceed the state standard.
The level sits 4.4 points below the state line — though 1 campus ranks as On the Rise, gaining ground the average doesn't show yet.
The middle years
One middle school: Richard L. Graves Middle at 25/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.
One dot, one school — there is no spread to read at this level.
Richard L. Graves Middle is the strongest option at 25/100 — 6.4% of its students exceed the state standard.
21.6% of students are chronically absent (state: 18.1%) — chronic means missing 10% or more of the school year. Whatever the scores say, ask each school what it is doing about attendance.
What it means for your family
Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Lake Marie Elementary at 46/100 — 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 — 1 campus here ranks as On the Rise, its returning cohorts gaining more than most schools statewide. Ask your school two questions: what happens for a kid who arrives behind, and what the classroom looks like for one who arrives ahead.
