Summary

Brittan Elementary is a K–8 school serving 539 students in Sutter, a community in Sutter County. In 2025–26, about 32% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 29% in math and 19% in science—close to district results but below state rates in every subject. The most important takeaway is that Brittan’s overall proficiency remains notably below the state, especially in ELA and science.

Math is Brittan’s strongest subject compared with the state, while ELA and science are weaker in nearby comparisons. Math proficiency was 29%, nearly matching the district and 9 percentage points below the state; it was also 6 points below the nearby-school average. ELA was 32%, about the same as the district but 18 points below the state and 14 points below the nearby average; Brittan ranked fourth-lowest among the nine nearby schools with results. Science was 19%, close to the district but 17 points below the state and 13 points below the nearby average, making Brittan second-lowest among those peers. Results vary sharply by grade in math: grades 5 and 6 were 14% and 16% proficient, while grades 7 and 8 were 43% and 40%, above state rates in both grades.

Test scores have improved since 2022–23, but the overall SchoolDigger ranking has declined: ELA rose 4 percentage points, math 4 and science 2, while the ranking moved from the 39th percentile in 2023–24 to the 23rd percentile in 2025–26. SchoolDigger gives Brittan 1 star; among nine nearby schools with rankings, it is fourth-lowest. Chronic absenteeism improved from 39% in 2021–22 to 17% in 2025–26, slightly below the state’s 18%. The 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 20.5, compared with a nearby-school average of 21.4. Free/reduced lunch eligible was 35% in 2024–25, versus a nearby-school average of 64%; these are contextual measures, not explanations for results. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for “White Students” was at the 5th percentile in 2025–26, compared with the school’s 23rd-percentile overall ranking. Its “Male Students” ranking fell from the 48th percentile in 2023–24 to the 24th percentile in 2025–26.
