Summary

New Jerusalem is a public school in Tracy serving grades 1–8, with 217 students. Its latest results show that English language arts (ELA) is a relative bright spot, while math and science proficiency remain low. The clearest concern is science: 13% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, the lowest result among eight nearby schools with science scores.

Compared with the state, the school was 13 percentage points lower in ELA, 18 points lower in math, and 23 points lower in science. Against the New Jerusalem Elementary district, it was 4 points higher in ELA, but 2 points lower in math and 9 points lower in science. Nearby comparisons also put ELA in perspective: the school’s 36% was below the nearby-school average of 44%, though higher than three of nine schools. Its 21% math result placed it in the lower half of nearby schools, while its science score was 22 points below the nearby average. Math weakness is especially pronounced in grade 8: 11% were proficient, below the district and state, and lower than every nearby school with a reported grade 8 result.

Results have improved most clearly in ELA: proficiency rose 22 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, and the gap to the state narrowed by 20 points. Math rose 11 points over that period, while science gained 5 points overall but fell 8 points from its 2024–2025 level. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 27th percentile statewide, with 1 star, up from the 1st percentile in 2023–2024. One notable group result is SchoolDigger’s 81st-percentile ranking, with 4 stars, for how well the school serves Special Education Students—54 points above its overall percentile; this measure is available for only one year. In 2024–2025, the school had 24.6 students per teacher, the highest reported ratio among nearby schools, and 48% were free/reduced lunch eligible.
