Summary

Albany Park Elementary serves 319 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Delano, California. In 2025–2026, its all-grades proficiency was 35% in English language arts (ELA), 31% in math, and 16% in science. The most important finding is that it scored below both the state and Delano Union Elementary in all three subjects.

Compared with seven nearby K–5 schools, Albany Park ranked third-lowest in ELA and lowest in math and science. Its results were 5, 8, and 16 percentage points below the nearby-school averages in those subjects, respectively. Math is its strongest subject relative to the state and district: the shortfall was 7 points in both comparisons, versus 14 points in ELA and 20 points (state) or 15 points (district) in science. But math was still the lowest among the nearby K–5 schools, just below Fremont Elementary at 31%. Some local schools with similar low-income rates scored higher: Harvest Elementary, for example, had 48% proficiency in ELA and 52% in math.

Results have varied over time, with science showing the sharpest decline: proficiency fell from 34% in 2022–2023 to 16% in 2025–2026, shifting from 4 points above the state to 20 points below it. ELA and math also remain below state results despite fluctuations. SchoolDigger places Albany Park at the 31st percentile statewide with 2 stars in 2025–2026, tied with Fremont for the lowest percentile among the nearby schools. Attendance is a positive context: chronic absenteeism dropped from 27% in 2021–2022 to 6% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 18% and slightly above the district’s 5%. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 19.1, and 88% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the sixth-highest rate among the 11 schools. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for English Language Learner students fell from the 71st percentile in 2022–2023 to the 26th in 2023–2024, indicating a marked decline in the school’s relative standing for serving that group.
