Summary

Spanos (Alex G.) Elementary serves 482 students in grades K–8 in Stockton, within Stockton Unified. In 2025–2026, about 20% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 15% in math and 18% in science. The school’s results were below both district and state levels in all three subjects, with ELA showing the largest gap from the state.

Science is the school’s strongest subject relative to nearby K–8 schools: it ranked second among eight, and its proficiency rate was about 6 points above the peer average. Its science result was less than 1 point below the district’s, though still 18 points below the state’s. ELA and math each ranked fourth among the eight nearby schools. ELA was about 10 points below the district and 30 below the state; math was 3 points below the district and 23 below the state. These results make science a relative bright spot, not a sign that achievement is strong across subjects.

Science proficiency has risen steadily, from 7% in 2022–2023 to 18% in 2025–2026, a gain of 11 points, while ELA has fallen from its 2024–2025 high of 26% to 20%. Chronic absenteeism has also improved, declining from 34% in 2021–2022 to 21% in 2025–2026; that was the second-lowest reported rate among nearby K–8 schools, but remained above the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger ranked the school in the 7th percentile statewide in 2025–2026 and gave it 0 stars. Its statewide rankings for how well it serves male students and Hispanic students also fell: male students went from the 27th to the 9th percentile, and Hispanic students from the 27th to the 10th, between 2023–2024 and 2025–2026. For context, the 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 29.9:1, and 92% of students were eligible for free/reduced lunch.
