Schools in Zip Code 94087

ZIP code 94087 has 10 schools: five elementary, three middle, and two high schools, spanning elementary through high school. In 2025–26, all nine schools with numerical test results were above California’s proficiency figures in ELA, math, and science. But results vary considerably across the area: the gap between the highest- and lowest-scoring schools was 27 percentage points in ELA, 46 in math, and 40 in science. The most important takeaway is that strong results relative to the state do not mean schools in the area perform alike.

Cherry Chase Elementary led schools with numerical results in all three subjects, with 84% proficiency in ELA, 88% in math, and 82% in science; it outpaced the next-highest school by 10, 8, and 6 points, respectively. At the other end, Fremont High had the lowest reported results—58% in ELA and 42% in both math and science—though those scores remained 9, 3, and 6 points above state figures. Among middle schools, Cupertino Middle led with 74% in ELA, 75% in math, and 73% in science. Community Day had the highest reported chronic absenteeism, 64%, compared with 18% statewide.

Across the nine schools with numerical results, average proficiency fell by 5 points in ELA and 1 point in math from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while science rose by 1 point; the average lead over the state narrowed in all three subjects. Cherry Chase also stood out in SchoolDigger rankings at the 99th percentile, while Fremont High ranked at the 72nd percentile. School-level measures offer context, not explanations: in 2024–25, free/reduced lunch eligible figures were 7% at Cherry Chase and 51% at Chester W. Nimitz Elementary. Staffing also does not line up in a simple way with results: Louis E. Stocklmeir Elementary reported 23.8 students per teacher, compared with 20.5 at Cherry Chase. Community Day’s test results are state-suppressed, so its proficiency cannot be compared.
