Summary

Sartorette Charter is a public charter elementary school serving about 278 students in grades K-5 within the high-performing Cambrian district in San Jose.

Academically, the school is a solid performer that beats California state averages but finds itself in a very competitive local landscape. While its test scores are strong, they are typically a bit lower than the Cambrian district average and several nearby schools, such as the highly-ranked Steindorf STEAM K-8 Magnet and Oster Elementary. However, Sartorette stands out in other important areas: it has the best student-teacher ratio (18.5:1) among 11 nearby schools, meaning more potential for individual attention, and it has an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 8%, showing strong student engagement and support.

The school operates very efficiently, spending significantly less per student than many neighbors like Almaden Elementary while achieving comparable or better results. It shows particular strength in supporting economically disadvantaged students and has seen improving science scores. For families, Sartorette offers a balanced option with smaller classes and good foundational performance in a district full of excellent choices.
