Summary

Stewart Elementary serves 379 students in kindergarten through grade 8 in Pinole, within West Contra Costa Unified. SchoolDigger places it at the 54th percentile statewide, with 3 stars, in 2025–2026. Its clearest standout is science: 43% of students were proficient, above the state, district and nearby-school average.

Science is Stewart’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools: its 43% proficiency rate was 7 points above the state and 15 points above the nearby average. Math is the clearest weakness: 32% were proficient, 6 points below the state and 3 points below the nearby average, though 4 points above the district. ELA was close to the state overall, at 48% compared with 49%, and above the nearby average of 40%. But grade-level results vary: math proficiency was 28% in grade 3 and 18% in grade 6, while ELA was stronger than the state in grades 4, 6 and 8. Chronic absenteeism is also worth watching: 32% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, compared with 18% statewide, although that was below the nearby-school average of 35%.

Over the longer term, results have improved, though the latest year was mixed: since 2022–2023, ELA rose 7 percentage points, math 8 points and science 18 points. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, however, ELA fell 1 point and math 4, while science rose 12. Stewart’s SchoolDigger percentile increased 11 points from 2021–2022, but it still ranks fourth among the ten nearby schools; Ohlone Elementary and West County Mandarin rank higher. The student–teacher ratio was 20.4 in 2024–2025, and 49% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well Stewart serves students with low socioeconomic status rose to the 67th percentile in 2025–2026, from the 45th percentile in 2023–2024; its overall percentile rose from 48 to 54 over that period.
