Summary

Grunsky Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 456 students in the Stockton Unified district, operating in a community where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school shows notable strengths in certain areas when compared to its neighbors. For instance, its math scores are higher than several nearby schools like John C. Fremont Elementary and Fillmore Elementary, and its sixth graders excel in English, scoring well above both district and state averages. However, performance varies significantly by grade, with lower scores in fifth-grade math and seventh-grade English, and science is a clear area needing improvement across the board.

While the school's chronic absenteeism rate is high, it is lower than some district peers like Fillmore Elementary and Wilson Elementary. Grunsky operates with fewer resources than some local charter schools such as KIPP University Park, yet it remains academically competitive, particularly in math. The school has shown it can effectively support specific student groups, and focusing on consistent teaching methods across all grades and improving attendance could help build on its existing strengths.
