Elementary Schools in Primary Charter District

This analysis focuses on the single elementary school, Primary Charter, within the Primary Charter District in Tracy, California, serving approximately 401 students in grades Kindergarten through 4th.

Primary Charter demonstrates clear strengths in student attendance and mathematics achievement. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 10.2% is less than half the state average, indicating a strong, engaging school environment. Academically, its students excel in math, with nearly 49% testing proficient, significantly outperforming the California average of 37.3%. Performance in English Language Arts is solid, matching the state average.

Despite these positive metrics, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past two years, falling from the 80th to the 65th percentile. This suggests that while students are performing well on proficiency tests, the state's broader evaluation—which may include measures of academic growth from year to year—shows room for improvement. With average class sizes and funding, the school's results appear driven by effective programs rather than exceptional resources, providing a stable foundation upon which to build.
