Summary

Charles E. Mack Elementary serves 840 students in grades K–6 in Sacramento and is part of the Elk Grove Unified district. Its latest results show a mixed picture: science is a local strength, while English/language arts is a clear concern. Most importantly, the school’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates were below both state and district rates in all three subjects, with the largest gap in ELA.

Compared with 10 nearby schools, science is the school’s strongest subject: 21% proficiency ranked third, above the nearby average of 17%; only Union House Elementary and Cesar E. Chavez scored higher. ELA was weakest locally, at 26% and eighth of 11, below the nearby average of 31%. Math was 23%, seventh of 11 and about 1 point below the nearby average. Against the state and district, ELA was 24 and 29 points lower, respectively; math was 15 and 20 points lower, and science was 15 and 17 points lower. Grade 3 ELA also stood out as a concern: it ranked 10th of 11 nearby schools, while grade 5 ELA ranked fourth.

Results are changing unevenly: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 4 points, math rose 3 points and science rose 8 points, although science had dipped before its latest increase. Chronic absenteeism improved from 47% in 2021–2022 to 33% in 2025–2026, but remained 11 points above the district and 15 above the state. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 18th statewide percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026, around the middle of the nearby group.
