Summary

Sutterville Elementary is a K–6 school in Sacramento’s Sacramento City Unified district, serving 408 students. Its latest results put it among the stronger nearby schools, with science standing out most: in 2025–2026, more than two-thirds of students were proficient in science, and the school outperformed both its district and California in all three tested subjects.

Sutterville’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools was science, where its 68% proficiency rate was the highest among nine same-district schools with results. Its ELA and math rates were 65% and 59%, ranking third locally in both. Across the state, it was ahead by 15 points in ELA, 21 points in math and 32 points in science; its advantages over the district were 23, 27 and 38 points, respectively. Fourth-grade math was a relative dip at 47%, 20 points below the school’s grade-three result, but still above the state and district for that grade. In Crocker/Riverside and Leonardo Da Vinci, fourth-grade math was higher.

ELA and math proficiency have been nearly flat since 2022–2023, while science has risen overall but varied more sharply: it fell to 43% in 2024–2025 before rebounding to 68% in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger ranked the school in the 83rd statewide percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026, third among nine nearby schools with rankings; only Crocker/Riverside and Leonardo Da Vinci ranked higher. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 25.5, above the nearby-school average of 22.3. Also as context, 31% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; California is identified as a statewide-free-meals state, so this figure is not a measure of whether students can receive free meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Asian students was at the 11th percentile in 2024–2025, compared with the school’s overall 79th percentile.
