Summary

Washington Elementary is a K–5 school in San Gabriel, California, serving 401 students in the San Gabriel Unified district. Its results are above California’s in all three tested subjects, but the clearest overall finding is that science is a relative weak spot compared with its district and nearby schools.

Math is Washington’s strongest subject against the state and district: 53% of students were proficient, compared with 38% statewide and 50% districtwide. ELA was 61%, close to the nearby-school average of 61% and slightly above the district’s 60%; it also exceeded the state’s 49%. Science proficiency was 41%—above the state’s 36%, but below the district’s 48% and the nearby-school average of 50%. Among Washington and ten nearby schools, it tied for seventh in science, while its ELA and math results each ranked sixth.

Scores in all three subjects were lower in 2025–2026 than four years earlier: ELA fell 1 percentage point, math 6, and science 4, while state results rose. Washington’s lead over the state narrowed by 4 points in ELA, 10 in math and 10 in science. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 75th percentile statewide, with four stars; its percentile has declined 6 points since 2023–2024. Context includes a student–teacher ratio of 23.5 in 2024–2025 and 68% of students free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings also show notable variation: in 2021–2022, Washington ranked at the 97th percentile for how well it served English Language Learner Students, compared with the 81st percentile overall that year. Its Asian Students ranking fell from the 59th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 39th in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s current 75th-percentile overall ranking.
