Summary

Wilson Elementary is a K–8 school in Stockton, California, with 346 students, part of Stockton Unified and serving families in the surrounding Stockton area. The school’s results have improved in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but its most important challenge is that proficiency remains below state levels in all three subjects.

Science is Wilson’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools: 18% of students were proficient, nearly matching the nearby average of 19% and the district’s 19%. ELA and math lag more: Wilson’s 25% in ELA was below the nearby average of 32% and district’s 30%, while its 15% in math was below the nearby average of 23% and district’s 18%. The state rates were 49% in ELA, 38% in math and 36% in science. Among nearby schools with results, Wilson ranked third-lowest in ELA and math and fourth-lowest in science—so science is a relative local strength, not a result close to the state level.

All three subjects have risen since 2022–2023: ELA increased 11 percentage points, science 8 and math 3. The state gap narrowed in ELA by 8 points and in science by 2, but edged wider in math. SchoolDigger places Wilson in the state’s 9th percentile, with 0 stars, and third-lowest among nearby schools with a current percentile. Its student-teacher ratio was 26.2 in 2024–2025, compared with a nearby-school average of 23.3. Also in 2024–2025, 86% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; that was the fifth-highest rate among the schools in the comparison. These figures provide context, but do not explain the school’s academic results.
