Summary:
ZIP code 95004 has one listed school, Aromas, serving kindergarten through grade 8, with 399 students. In 2025–2026, its all-grades results were 39% in English language arts (ELA), 31% in math, and 36% in science. It was above the Aromas - San Juan Unified district in all three subjects, but below California in ELA and math and essentially level in science. The most important finding is the contrast between strong grade 8 results and weaker results in several earlier grades.
Because Aromas is the only school listed, there is no meaningful top-to-bottom school comparison in this ZIP code. Its clearest strength is grade 8: ELA was 61% versus 49% statewide, math was 55% versus 36%, and science was 42% versus 35%. In contrast, grades 3–6 were below California in both ELA and math; the largest shortfall was grade 4 ELA, at 20% versus 46%, a gap of 26 percentage points. Across all grades, Aromas was 11 points below the state in ELA and 7 points below in math; science was just above the state, by less than one point.
Recent changes differed by subject: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 2 percentage points and math fell 5, while science rose 10 points. The state comparison also worsened in ELA and math, with the gaps widening by 3 and 6 points, respectively; science moved from below the state to just above it. SchoolDigger’s ranking declined from the 56th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 29th percentile in 2025–2026, a 27-point drop, though rankings and individual subject results summarize performance differently. Other context includes a 21:1 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 51% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these are school-level figures, not evidence of what drives test results.
