Summary

Aspire Arts & Sciences Academy is a K–5 school serving 388 students in Stockton, California. In 2025–26, 26% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 23% in math, and 22% in science, compared with 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide. Chronic absenteeism was also high: 33% of students were chronically absent, 15 percentage points above California’s rate. The most important concern is that the school remains below the state in all three subjects, with its largest gap in ELA.

Results vary by grade, and some grades compare more favorably with nearby schools than others. Fourth-grade ELA proficiency was 33%, third-highest among nine nearby schools in the same-grade comparison. Fifth-grade math was 13%, eighth of nine. Science is the school’s strongest subject relative to the state, with a 14-point gap—the smallest of its three subject gaps—but its fifth-grade result was around the middle of nearby schools. Nearby chronic absenteeism rates ranged from 23% to 46%; Aspire’s 33% was tied for the second-highest. The school’s own district test scores were not supplied, so a direct district comparison is not available.

ELA and math proficiency have improved for three straight years: ELA rose 7 percentage points and math 5 points from 2023–24 to 2025–26, narrowing both state gaps. Chronic absenteeism has fallen 18 points from its 2022–23 peak, though it ticked up in the latest year. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 17th percentile with 1 star in 2025–26, up from the 8th percentile and 0 stars the year before; among nearby schools with rankings, it stood fifth of nine. In 2024–25, the student-teacher ratio was 25.8, and 73% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Female Students rose from the 6th to the 24th percentile, an 18-point increase, compared with the school’s overall 17th-percentile ranking.
