Summary:

This analysis covers nine elementary schools in zip code 94015, serving Daly City and Colma, with grades K-5 (and one K-8 school) across the South San Francisco Unified and Jefferson Elementary districts, revealing a wide range of academic performance and resources.

Among these schools, Skyline Elementary and Junipero Serra Elementary from South San Francisco Unified are consistently high performers, while within Jefferson Elementary District, Marjorie H. Tobias Elementary stands out as the top-ranked school with the highest test scores. Thomas Edison Elementary showed remarkable improvement this year and has the best attendance record, whereas Westlake Elementary faces significant challenges with the highest chronic absenteeism rate and lower test scores in upper grades.

Tobias excels with moderate resources. Parents will find a mix of stable, high-performing schools and others showing recent improvement or specific challenges, particularly in 5th-grade math and science at some sites.
