Summary

Jefferson is a K–8 school in Sacramento’s Natomas area, serving 735 students in Natomas Unified. In 2025–26, its all-grades proficiency rates were below district and state results in English language arts (ELA), math, and science, though it compared favorably with many nearby schools. Its clearest academic concerns are science overall and fifth-grade math; the most immediate change for families to watch is chronic absenteeism, which rose sharply in the latest year.

ELA is Jefferson’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools: its 39% proficiency rate ranked third among 10 schools with reported results and was above their 28% average. It was 4 percentage points below the district and 10 below the state. Math was 28%, fifth among nearby schools and above their 23% average, but 3 points below the district and 10 below the state. Science was 18%, fifth among nearby schools and close to their 17% average, yet 16 points below the district and 18 below the state. Grade-level results vary: eighth-grade ELA was a standout at 52%, above the district’s 47% and state’s 49%, and higher than other nearby schools reporting that grade; fifth-grade math was just 11%, lower than all but two of 10 nearby schools.

Scores have improved over four years: ELA rose 18 percentage points and math 16, while science gained only 2 points and remained far behind the state. SchoolDigger placed Jefferson at the 29th percentile with 1 star in 2025–26, up 22 percentile points since 2022–23 and fourth-highest among the nearby schools, but still below the statewide midpoint. Chronic absenteeism climbed 10 points to 29%, compared with 23% in the district and 18% statewide. In 2024–25, the student–teacher ratio was 25.3:1, above the nearby average of 21.8:1, and 79% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves Hispanic students was at the 44th percentile in 2025–26, above its overall 29th; its Special Education Students ranking fell from the 64th percentile in 2024–25 to the 27th in 2025–26.
