Summary

Cambridge Elementary serves 738 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Vacaville, within Travis Unified. Its 2025–2026 results were above California and district averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. Among nearby schools with the same grade span, Center Elementary and Foxboro Elementary, Cambridge also had stronger results across all three subjects. The key takeaway is that Cambridge is performing above both state and district levels in every tested subject.

Math is Cambridge’s clearest comparative strength, while its science lead over the district is slim. Cambridge proficiency was 46% in math, 55% in ELA, and 41% in science—about 11, 5, and 1 percentage points above the district, respectively. Compared with California, it was ahead by about 8 points in math, 6 in ELA, and 6 in science. Cambridge also exceeded the average for Center and Foxboro by about 17 points in math, 19 in ELA, and 8 in science. Within Cambridge, fifth-grade math stood out: 52% proficiency was the highest among the 11 nearby schools reporting that grade, about 15 points above the next-highest result. Fourth-grade math was a relative dip at 40%, below the state’s 42%.

Results have improved over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Cambridge gained about 8 percentage points in ELA, 9 in math, and 3 in science. Chronic absenteeism also fell from 29% in 2021–2022 to 11% in 2025–2026, below both the district’s 16% and the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger placed Cambridge at the 68th percentile in 2025–2026, the highest among the nearby schools listed, with 3 stars; its percentile rose from 57 the prior year. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 22.2. In that same school year, 46% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the lowest reported share among nearby schools with the same measure.
