Summary

Pittman Charter is a K-8 public charter school serving 619 students in Stockton, California, a community within the Stockton Unified school district that faces significant socioeconomic challenges.

While the school's overall state ranking is low, it consistently outperforms the Stockton Unified district average in English, math, and science, which is a notable achievement as most nearby schools like Grunsky Elementary and El Dorado Elementary do not. Pittman Charter also excels in getting students to school, with a chronic absenteeism rate that has dramatically improved and is now close to the state average, far better than most comparison schools.

The school shows particular strength in its upper grades, with 8th graders performing nearly as well as the state average in English, and it achieves these outcomes with significantly lower per-student spending than some nearby charters like KIPP University Park. However, performance has declined recently, and like other area schools, it struggles with a dip in 4th-grade scores. Among local charter options, such as Stockton Collegiate International Elementary and TEAM Charter, Pittman Charter sits in the middle in terms of academic ranking.
