Summary:

ZIP code 94539 has seven elementary schools: most serve kindergarten through grade 5, while Warm Springs Elementary serves grades 3–5 and James Leitch Elementary serves K–2. In 2025–2026, all six schools with test results were above California averages in English language arts (ELA), math and science. The six-school averages were 83% in ELA, 84% in math and 73% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. The key takeaway is that even the lowest-scoring school was well above state results in every subject.

Mission San Jose Elementary led ELA and math at 88% in each, and tied Fred E. Weibel Elementary for the science lead at 82%. Weibel was close behind in ELA at 87% and math at 87.9%, compared with Mission San Jose’s 88.2% in math. At the other end, Mission Valley Elementary had the lowest all-grade results: 75% in ELA, 75% in math and 64% in science. Those results were 9, 12 and 12 points below the other schools’ averages, respectively, though still 26, 36 and 28 points above state results. Grade-level strengths can differ: Warm Springs led grade 5 math at 87%.

Local averages edged up from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: about 1 point in ELA and math, and less than 1 point in science. Mission San Jose was the only school to improve in all three subjects; Warm Springs declined in all three, including an 8-point drop in science. SchoolDigger’s rank number improved from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026 for Mission San Jose (72 to 38) and Weibel (86 to 39); a lower number means a better rank. Mission Valley remained lowest in test results, though its SchoolDigger rank improved from 630 in 2024–2025 to 419 in 2025–2026. Student–teacher ratios ranged from 22.9 at Mission San Jose to 26.1 at Warm Springs. For context, reported free/reduced lunch eligible shares in 2024–2025 were 13% at Weibel, 23% at Mission San Jose and 25% at Mission Valley. James Leitch has no test-score figures supplied, so it cannot be compared on achievement here.
