Summary

Flynn (Leonard R.) Elementary serves 381 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in San Francisco Unified, in San Francisco. In 2025–26, its proficiency rates were below both district and state averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The biggest concern is that Flynn’s results lag those benchmarks in every tested subject, with especially large gaps in ELA and math.

Science is Flynn’s strongest subject compared with nearby K–5 schools: 27% of students were proficient, about 1 point above the nearby-school average of 25%, though still 17 points below the district and 9 below the state. ELA proficiency was 21%, 6 points below the nearby average and 32 below the district; it was the second-lowest among seven nearby schools. Math was weaker still at 16%, 15 points below the nearby average and 30 below the district, ranking third-lowest among the seven. The state gaps were also substantial: 28 points in ELA and 22 in math. These results make science a local bright spot, not a subject where Flynn has caught up with district or state performance.

Results have shifted over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell 7 points overall, math fell 1 point overall but dropped 12 points in the latest year, and science rose 16 points despite a recent dip. SchoolDigger ranks Flynn at the 11th percentile statewide and gives it 1 star; its percentile fell 26 points over two years. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves Special Education Students stood at the 54th percentile in 2025–26, well above Flynn’s overall standing, while its measure for Low Socio Economic Status Students fell from the 25th percentile in 2023–24 to the 0th percentile in 2025–26. As context, Flynn’s student-teacher ratio was 21.1 in 2024–25, and 63% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year.
