Summary

Isabelle Jackson Elementary serves 725 students in kindergarten through sixth grade in Sacramento, in the Elk Grove Unified area. Chronic absenteeism has improved, falling from 38% in 2021–22 to 24% in 2025–26, but remains above the district’s 22% and the state’s 18%. The central academic concern is that the school is below state, district and nearby-school averages in all three tested subjects.

English language arts is its closest subject to comparison averages, while science is its weakest. In 2025–26, ELA proficiency was 40%, compared with 49% statewide, 54% in the district and a 47% nearby-school average; the school ranked ninth of 11 schools in the comparison. Math was 28% versus 38% statewide, 44% in the district and 38% nearby, also ranking ninth. Science was 19% versus 36% statewide, 37% in the district and 30% nearby, ranking eighth. Fifth grade stands out as a particular challenge: math proficiency was 17%, 20 points below the state rate. Sixth-grade ELA is a bright spot, at 53%—5 points above the state rate and higher than six of the 10 nearby schools.

ELA has improved over time, rising 4 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, and its gap with the state narrowed; math rose just 1 point and science rose 1 point over that span, while both fell further behind the state. SchoolDigger rates the school at the 36th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–26; eight nearby schools have higher percentiles. Its student–teacher ratio is 25:1, compared with a nearby-school average of 24.0:1. In 2024–25, 77% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, close to the nearby average of 75%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves African American students is notably higher than its overall ranking: the group ranked at the 72nd percentile in 2025–26, versus 36th overall. Its ranking for how well it serves Special Education students was also higher, at the 57th percentile.
