Summary

South/West Park Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 806 students in the Tracy Joint Unified district, notable for its strong academic improvement trajectory in a community with significant economic need.

This school has shown remarkable growth, climbing from a low statewide ranking to a solid 3-star rating over the past six years. While test scores in English, Math, and Science are below the state average, they are strong for the district, especially in mathematics where South/West Park Elementary outperforms most other Tracy Joint Unified schools. The school is particularly effective given that over 80% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch; it achieves significantly higher proficiency rates than other high-need schools in the area like Central Elementary and McKinley Elementary.

Interesting comparisons show that schools in the neighboring Jefferson Elementary district, such as Monticello Elementary, have higher scores but serve a much more affluent student population. Within its own district, South/West Park achieves better results than some schools with more funding per student, like Louis A. Bohn Elementary. Areas for continued focus include reducing chronic absenteeism, which has improved but remains above average, and addressing performance variations across different grade levels.
