Summary

Coyle Avenue Elementary serves 331 students in grades K–5 in Carmichael, California. Its 2025–2026 test results are below both San Juan Unified and the state in English language arts, math, and science; the largest shortfall is in English language arts, where 24% met proficiency, compared with 40% districtwide and 49% statewide.

Science is Coyle’s clearest strength compared with nearby K–5 schools, while English language arts is its weakest local comparison. Science proficiency was 25%, about 1 point above the nearby-school average, and ranked third among Coyle and the seven nearby K–5 schools; only Cambridge Heights Elementary and Skycrest Elementary scored higher. Still, Coyle was 6 points below the district and 11 below the state in science. In math, 20% proficiency was 6 points below the nearby average, 9 below the district, and 19 below the state. A grade-level dip stands out: fourth-grade math proficiency was 17%, lower than the next-lowest nearby result of 20% at Arlington Heights Elementary.

Results improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026—by 10 points in English language arts, 4 in math, and 17 in science—but over the longer period since 2022–2023, the state proficiency gaps widened in all three subjects. SchoolDigger’s ranking rose from the 4th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 14th percentile and 1 star in 2025–2026; three of ten nearby schools ranked lower. SchoolDigger’s ranking for Special Education Students is notably higher: the school ranked at the 40th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, up from the 18th percentile the year before. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 23.6, in the middle of nearby schools, and 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. These figures provide context, not an explanation for the school’s results.

What people are saying

Open Quote I wish I could give less than one star. Although the investigation into this school has barely begun, it is my belief, that there is an acceptable culture of abuse by teachers on the special education students. It's a terrible thing to have to consider that the school you entrusted with the care of your special needs child, would rather further victimize the children rather than accept responsibility for actions! Parents, talk to you children, ask then if they know what "holding" is that a certain teachers threatens and inflicts upon them. If they are able to tell you what it is, please contact law enforcement! It's abuse! Close Quote
