Summary

Pulliam Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 599 students in Stockton, CA, operating within the Stockton Unified school district, which ranks in the bottom 15% of all districts in California.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with student proficiency in English, Math, and Science far below state averages, contributing to a statewide ranking in the 7th percentile. Chronic absenteeism, while improved from previous years, remains higher than the state average. This pattern of low performance is common among nearby schools in the Stockton Unified district, such as Adams Elementary and Kennedy Elementary. However, Maxine Hong Kingston Elementary, a school with similar student demographics in the same district, consistently outperforms Pulliam, suggesting school-level practices can make a difference.

Notably, some nearby schools demonstrate that stronger outcomes are possible in the area. For example, Aspire River Oaks Charter achieves proficiency rates exceeding state averages despite serving a population with similar economic challenges. Pulliam's recent success in supporting English Language Learners and its improvement in student attendance are positive signs that could be built upon. The school's higher per-student spending compared to some peers, like Lincoln Elementary in the Lincoln Unified district, indicates resources are available to support meaningful change.

My children have been here for 5 years. The first few years I felt a complete disconnect from the principal but last year they replaced her and the new principal is 100 for the kids. Close Quote
