Summary

Marshall Elementary is a 245-student K–5 school in San Francisco, in San Francisco Unified. Its latest results show a broad academic concern: in 2025–2026, proficiency was 7% in ELA, 8% in math, and 5% in science, well below both district and state levels. The most important finding is that Marshall’s results were at or near the bottom among nearby K–5 schools in all three subjects.

Marshall’s results were lower than the state’s 49% in ELA, 38% in math, and 36% in science, and the district’s 54%, 46%, and 44%, respectively. Among six nearby San Francisco Unified K–5 schools with results that year, Marshall had the lowest ELA and math scores and the second-lowest science score; nearby schools averaged 38% in ELA, 33% in math, and 24% in science. ELA is Marshall’s biggest shortfall against the state and district, while math is the closest; science is closest to the local peer average, though still near the bottom. In grade 5 ELA, Marshall’s strongest relative grade, 12% proficiency was still below the nearby schools’ range of 18%–69%. In grade 5 science, Marshall’s 5% was just above Chavez (Cesar) Elementary at 4%.

Results have fallen overall since 2022–2023: ELA declined 10 points, from 17% to 7%; math fell 11 points, from 19% to 8%; and science dropped 6 points, from 11% to 5%, after a temporary rise to 25% in 2023–2024. SchoolDigger rates Marshall at 0 stars and the 0th percentile, ranking it 5,783rd of 5,804 schools; its percentile fell from 12 in 2023–2024 to 2 the following year. In 2024–2025, Marshall reported 79% free/reduced lunch eligible, the second-highest share among the nearby schools, and a student-teacher ratio of 25.1, higher than every nearby school reporting a ratio. Its reported spending was $21,734 per student, above the nearby-school average of about $19,511. These figures provide context, not evidence that spending, class size, or income measures caused the test results.
