Summary

Keyes Elementary serves 477 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Keyes, within the Keyes Union district. Its 2025–2026 results are below California’s proficiency rates in English language arts (ELA), math, and science; science is the most important concern, with the widest gap from the state.

Math is Keyes’ strongest subject in comparison with nearby schools, its district, and the state, while science is its clearest weakness. In 2025–2026, about 30% of Keyes students were proficient in math, 8 percentage points below the state and 1 point below the district; the ten nearby schools averaged 32%, just 2 points higher. ELA proficiency was about 37%, 12 points below the state, 6 below the district, and 2 below the nearby-school average of 39%. Science proficiency was about 20%—16 points below the state, 5 below the district, and 10 below the nearby-school average of 30%. Among the nearby schools with fifth-grade math results, only one scored below Keyes.

Results have improved over the longer term: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, proficiency rose 7 points in ELA, 5 in math, and 9 in science, narrowing the state gaps in all three subjects. The latest year was less encouraging: math was essentially flat, and science fell about 2 points, while ELA rose about 2. SchoolDigger ranks Keyes 3,865th of 5,804 California schools, at the 33rd percentile with 2 stars; its percentile is up 6 points from 2022–2023, though it has not climbed steadily. In 2024–2025, its student-teacher ratio was 20.7, the second lowest among the ten nearby schools, and 88% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. One notable historical subgroup result: SchoolDigger placed English Language Learner Students at the 57th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school’s overall 31st percentile, but that subgroup standing had fallen from the 80th percentile in 2021–2022. Nearby-school comparisons use the ten schools included in the supplied data.
