Summary:
ZIP code 93901 has five K–6 elementary schools: Mission Park Elementary, Lincoln Elementary, Roosevelt Elementary, Monterey Park Elementary and University Park Elementary. They enroll 488 to 657 students each, and their 2025–26 average proficiency results were 34% in ELA, 27% in math and 21% in science—15, 12 and 15 points below California, respectively. The most important finding is that results vary widely, and Lincoln is the only school above the state result in all three subjects.
Lincoln leads the group, with 50% proficiency in ELA, 47% in math and 38% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. At the other end, Roosevelt scores 20% in ELA, 16% in math and 9% in science—29, 22 and 27 points below the state. The gap between the highest and lowest school is about 30 points in each subject: 30 in ELA, 31 in math and 29 in science. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking percentiles also put Lincoln highest at the 64th percentile and Roosevelt lowest at the 8th.
Recent results are mixed: the group’s ELA average rose 3 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while math and science averages each fell about 1 point. University Park made the strongest broad-subject gains, improving 13 points in ELA and 10 in science; Mission Park had the sharpest setback, with science down 19 points. Staffing figures alone do not identify the academic leader: University Park has the lowest student–teacher ratio at 21.2, while Lincoln leads academically with a ratio of 23.9. The reported low-income measure is free/reduced lunch eligible (FRL), sy 2024–25: 28% at Lincoln and 81% at Roosevelt; these figures provide context, not an explanation for results.
