Summary:
Zip code 94133 has six schools: four elementary schools serving K–5, The New School of San Francisco, which serves K–8, and Francisco Middle, which serves grades 6–8. Five schools have 2025–2026 test results; the New School’s latest results are from 2024–2025. Because schools serve different grade spans, all-grades comparisons are broad snapshots, and the New School’s results are from a different year. The clearest takeaway is that academic results vary sharply from school to school.
Chin (John Yehall) Elementary stands out in 2025–2026, leading the five schools with results in all-grades ELA and math at 83% each, and science at 61%. Yick Wo Elementary also showed strength, scoring above the state in each reported grades 3–5 ELA and math result and in grade 5 science. At the other end, Francisco had the lowest all-grades results in all three subjects: 36% ELA, 30% math, and 23% science. Chin’s results exceeded Francisco’s by 46 percentage points in ELA, 53 in math, and 38 in science. In its latest results, the New School scored 68% in science—the highest among the six in 2024–2025—and 70% in ELA and 62% in math, both well above the state.
Among the five schools with results in both years, average scores fell by 2 points in ELA and 1 in math from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while science rose by 2 points; the schools’ average advantage over the state narrowed in all three subjects. Individual results differed: Chin’s science score rose 14 points, while Garfield Elementary’s math score fell 7 points. SchoolDigger ranked Chin in the 96th percentile statewide and Yick Wo in the 84th in 2025–2026; these are SchoolDigger rankings, not state test measures. All six schools reported the same income measure, free/reduced lunch eligible, for 2024–2025: Chin’s rate was 76%, the highest, while the New School’s was 35%. These are differences in school profiles, not evidence that the income measure explains test results.
