Summary:
Zip code 95037 has 11 schools—seven elementary, one middle, and three high schools—serving students from elementary through high school, including a continuation school. The 2025–26 results vary considerably: some schools are well above state proficiency, while others are below it. The most important finding is the gap between the two comprehensive high schools: in 11th grade, Ann Sobrato High scored 19 percentage points higher than Live Oak High in ELA, 27 points higher in math, and 19 points higher in science.
Among 2025–26 schoolwide results, Ann Sobrato led in ELA at 67% and science at 54%, while Paradise Valley Engineering Academy led in math at 57%. Jackson Academy of Music and Math (JAMM) also scored above the state in all three subjects, with 65% in ELA, 51% in math, and 53% in science. At the low end, P. A. Walsh STEAM Academy had the lowest ELA result among schools with current results, at 21%; Live Oak had the lowest math result, at 16%; and Barrett Elementary had the lowest science result, at 12%. Central High (Continuation) reported 0% in all three subjects. SchoolDigger placed Ann Sobrato at the 83rd statewide percentile and JAMM at the 76th in 2025–26.
Recent changes are mixed: across nine schools with results in both years, average school results fell about 1 point in ELA and math and rose about 1 point in science from 2024–25 to 2025–26. Barrett gained 3 points in ELA and 8 in math, while Walsh’s science result rose 9 points; these gains did not lift those results above the state. SchoolDigger’s percentile rankings also shifted: El Toro Health Science Academy fell 24 points, from the 62nd to the 38th percentile, over two years. The reported free/reduced lunch eligible measure (school year 2024–25) ranged from 8% at Charter School of Morgan Hill to 69% at Walsh; these figures are context, not an explanation for achievement. Charter’s latest test results are from 2024–25, and schools serve different grade spans, so same-grade comparisons are most useful.
