Summary:
ZIP code 91105 has one listed elementary school, San Rafael Elementary, serving 412 students in grades K–5; because no other local school is included, these figures cannot show how it compares with other schools in the ZIP code. In 2025–2026, San Rafael’s all-grades results were above both Pasadena Unified and California in ELA, math, and science. The clearest takeaway is that San Rafael was above the state in all three subjects, with leads of 9 points in ELA, 19 in math, and 19 in science.
San Rafael is the only school in the list, so it is the top school by default, not because it was compared with local alternatives. Its strongest subject-level advantages over California were in math and science: proficiency was 57% in math and 55% in science, compared with 38% and 36% statewide. ELA was 59% at San Rafael and 49% statewide. The school was above California in every supplied grade-level comparison, though the size of its lead varied: in ELA, from 8 points in grade 4 to 16 in grade 5; in math, from 8 points in grade 5 to 21 in grade 3. These differences suggest a smaller relative advantage in grade 5 math than in some other tested grades.
Results improved substantially from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, especially in science: San Rafael rose 7 points in ELA, 12 in math, and 29 in science. Its average across the three subjects moved from a 1-point lead over California to a 16-point lead. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile was 65 in 2023–2024, dipped to 61 the next year, then rose to 78 in 2025–2026. Other context: chronic absenteeism was 11% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 21% and the state’s 18%; the student–teacher ratio was 25.7 in 2024–2025. The school reported 34% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025.
