Summary:
This area contains one K–8 school, [Voices College-Bound Language Academy at W. Contra Costa County](https://www.schooldigger.com/go/CA/schools/0192114227/school.aspx), with 343 students. In 2025–2026, its all-grade proficiency rates were 24% in English language arts (ELA), 17% in math, and 9% in science, compared with 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide. Math was the closest of these comparisons, but the school was below the state in all three subjects; the most important finding is that academic results trail statewide levels across ELA, math, and science.
There is no school-to-school top or bottom in this list, but grade-level results show clear standouts and challenges. Third grade was the relative bright spot: ELA proficiency was 38%, 7 percentage points below the state, and math was 35%, 12 points below. Grade 8 results were much lower: 9% in both ELA and math, 40 points below the state in ELA and 27 points below in math; grade 8 science was 0%, versus 35% statewide. Spanish assessment results also varied: overall, the school was at 6% compared with 10% statewide, while third grade exceeded the state in Spanish overall, 15% to 11%, and writing, 26% to 20%.
Results improved in ELA and math over the two reported years, but science did not keep pace with the state. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA rose 6 percentage points and math rose 4, bringing each closer to the state by 5 and 3 points, respectively; science rose 1 point while the state rose 3, leaving the school 3 points farther behind. Chronic absenteeism was 33% in 2025–2026, compared with 18% statewide. Context figures include a 34.3:1 student–teacher ratio and, in 2024–2025, 81% of students free/reduced lunch eligible. These figures describe the school but do not establish causes of academic or attendance results.
