Schools in Zip Code 92093

Zip code 92093 has one listed public school, Preuss School UCSD, serving grades 6–12 and 825 students, so the area’s profile is a single school rather than a comparison among local schools. In 2024–2025, its all-grades proficiency rates were above state rates in ELA (63% versus 49%, a 14-point lead), math (43% versus 37%, 6 points), and science (41% versus 33%, 8 points). The most important takeaway is that the school outperformed the state in all three supplied subjects, with its widest advantage in ELA.

Within the grade-level results, grade 11 stands out most: ELA proficiency was 82% versus 57% statewide, a 25-point lead, and math was 49% versus 31%, a 19-point lead. Some middle-grade results were much closer to state rates: in grade 8, the school’s math result was 36% versus 34% statewide and science was 34% versus 32%; in grade 7, ELA was 53% versus 50%. These differences show that the school’s advantage varies by grade and subject, even though every supplied grade-and-subject result was above the state comparison.

SchoolDigger gave Preuss School UCSD five stars and ranked it 151st of 2,162 schools, in the 93rd percentile, for 2024–2025. Its rank improved by 52 places from 203rd in 2023–2024, but was 14 places below its 137th-place rank in 2022–2023—a dip followed by a partial recovery. Context for families: the student-teacher ratio was 19.1 in 2024–2025, and 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year. That measure is an observation about the school, not an explanation for its results.
