While Peter M Gombert Elementary School has lower proficiency rates in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics compared to the district and state averages, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups.

When compared to other nearby schools in the same district, such as Fry Elementary School, Peter M Gombert Elementary School generally performs worse in terms of test scores and other metrics.

While the school's subgroup performance data suggests the presence of effective strategies or programs targeting these subgroups, the overall data indicates that Peter M Gombert Elementary School has room for improvement, particularly in raising its academic proficiency rates and addressing the chronic absenteeism issue.
