Summary

Anthony C. Traina Elementary is a K-8 school serving 721 students in Tracy, California, operating within the higher-performing Jefferson Elementary district.

Academically, the school's test scores in English, Math, and Science are close to the state average but are consistently below the average for its own district. For example, its math proficiency is about 14 points lower than the district average. The school serves a student population with significant economic need, with over half qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch—a rate higher than most other schools in the Jefferson district, like Corral Hollow Elementary (16.75%) and Monticello Elementary (27.54%). Despite this need, Traina spends less per student and has a higher student-teacher ratio than several district peers.

It's important to view Traina's performance in context. While it lags behind its own district, it generally outperforms most schools in the neighboring Tracy Joint Unified district. The school shows a particular strength in supporting English Language Learners. However, it faces challenges like a notable drop in 5th-grade math scores and a chronic absenteeism rate (15.4%) that, while better than the state, is higher than the district average. Compared to Tom Hawkins Elementary, which has a similar student profile, Traina's academic results are slightly stronger.
