Summary:
ZIP code 95124 has eight elementary schools—three in Union Elementary and five in Cambrian; seven serve K–5, while Steindorf STEAM K-8 Magnet serves K–8. In 2025–2026, the schools’ average proficiency was 67% in ELA, 67% in math and 59% in science, compared with state averages of 49%, 38% and 36%. Results vary considerably: the gap between the highest- and lowest-scoring schools was 32 points in ELA, 43 in math and 46 in science. The key takeaway is that averages are above state results, but school-to-school differences—especially in math and science—are substantial.
Steindorf leads all-grades ELA at 83% and science at 82%, while Carlton Elementary narrowly leads math at 83%, just 0.1 point ahead of Oster Elementary. At the lower end, Fammatre Elementary has the lowest ELA result at 50%; Sartorette Charter has the lowest math result at 40% and science at 36%. Grade-level results add useful distinctions: Noddin Elementary leads fifth-grade ELA at 85%, while Bagby Elementary leads fifth-grade math at 76%.
The group averages dipped from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA fell 1 percentage point, math 2 points and science 1 point. Individual results varied: Noddin’s science rose 20 points, while Sartorette’s math fell 12 points and science fell 19; Bagby’s science declined 16 points. SchoolDigger rankings rose from the 95th to the 99th percentile for Steindorf and from the 87th to the 95th for Noddin, while Sartorette fell from the 73rd to the 62nd percentile. All schools report free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–2025, with shares from 5% at Steindorf to 24% at Farnham Charter; these figures are context, not an explanation of scores. Student–teacher ratios also vary, from 18.5 at Sartorette to 26.0 at Oster. Because Steindorf serves grades K–8, its all-grades results are not directly grade-matched to K–5 schools.
