Summary

Millard McCollam Elementary is a K–5 school in San Jose serving 370 students in the Alum Rock Union Elementary district. In 2025–2026, its proficiency was above the district in English language arts (ELA) and math, but below the state in ELA, math, and science. The biggest concern is the broad decline: results have fallen in all three subjects since 2022–2023, while state results have risen, leaving the school below the state in every subject.

Math is the school’s relative bright spot, while science is its clearest weakness. In 2025–2026, about 32% of students were proficient in math, 9 percentage points above the district but 7 below the state; ELA proficiency was about 35%, 5 points above the district and 14 below the state. Science was about 19%, below both the district by 2 points and the state by 17. The school also trailed the average for seven nearby schools in all three subjects: by 10 points in ELA, 10 in math, and 18 in science. Grade 5 math stands out as a concern: about 23% were proficient, compared with about 37% statewide, and five of seven nearby schools with results scored higher.

Since 2022–2023, ELA has fallen 16 percentage points, math 19, and science 16; science first rose in 2023–2024 before dropping in the following two years. SchoolDigger placed the school in the 33rd percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, below most nearby schools with rankings that year. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 18.5:1, the lowest among nine nearby schools with reported figures. In 2024–2025, 54% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Hispanic students was in the 8th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 33rd percentile, indicating substantially lower relative results for that group. For special education students, the 2024–2025 ranking was in the 27th percentile, compared with 53rd overall.
