Summary:
Elementary Schools in zip code 95306 are represented by one school, Sierra Foothill Charter, a K–8 school with 140 students. Its 2024–2025 all-grade proficiency was above the state result in each reported subject: 51% in ELA versus 49% statewide, 43% in math versus 37%, and 40% in science versus 33%. The clearest overall strength compared with the state was science, where the school was ahead by 7 percentage points.
Within the school, grade 3 stands out: ELA proficiency was 67%, 22 points above the state, and math was 60%, 14 points above. Grade 5 ELA was also notably strong at 69%, 20 points above the state. Grade 4 is the clearest concern relative to state results: ELA was 29%, 17 points below, and math was 21%, 21 points below. These grade-to-grade differences show why the all-grade results do not tell the whole story; grade 6 ELA was also below the state, at 43% versus 48%, while grade 6 math was above it, at 43% versus 37%.
SchoolDigger’s ranking improved in the latest year shown but had not returned to its earlier percentile: it ranked 1,770 of 5,859 schools (70th percentile) in 2022–2023, 2,630 of 5,869 (55th percentile) in 2023–2024, and 2,113 of 5,857 (64th percentile) in 2024–2025. That is a 9-point percentile gain in the latest year, but still 6 points below 2022–2023; these rankings do not establish a test-score trend. In 2024–2025, the school had a student–teacher ratio of 23.3 and 38% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. These are contextual figures, not explanations for results. Because this is the only listed school and test scores are supplied only for 2024–2025, there is no local peer comparison or test-score trend to judge.
