Summary

Park Avenue Elementary serves 541 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Yuba City, in Yuba City Unified. The most important finding is that its 2025–2026 test results were low across all three subjects: 21% proficient in English language arts (ELA), 20% in math, and 10% in science.

Math is Park Avenue’s relative strength compared with nearby K–5 schools, while science is its weakest subject against those peers. Park’s math result was 5 percentage points below the nearby-school average of 25%, compared with gaps of 11 points in both ELA and science. It was also below the district and state in every subject: the gaps were 5 points in math, 16 in ELA, and 14 in science versus the district, and 18, 28, and 26 points, respectively, versus the state. Park ranked lowest in ELA and science among the five nearby K–5 schools in the comparison; in math, it scored above two of them.

Results over time are mixed: ELA rose from 13% in 2022–2023 to 21% in 2025–2026, narrowing its gap with the state from 33 to 28 points. Math increased from 18% to 20%, but its state gap widened from 17 to 18 points.
