Elementary schools are scored on their own scale — never ranked against other levels.
The elementary years
25 points separate Stanislaus Elementary (45) from George Eisenhut Elementary (20) — at this level, which school matters more than which district.
5 elementary schools span 25 points around an average of 32.9.
Students are showing up: chronic absenteeism runs 14.2% against a state average of 17.9%.
2 of 5 elementary schools sit in the Needs Support band — which campus you're zoned for carries real weight here.
What it means for your family
The 25-point spread means the district average is nearly meaningless for an address decision — the zoned elementary school is the whole decision. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Stanislaus Elementary at 45/100 — 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.
