Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 95405

Seven elementary schools serve ZIP code 95405, with enrollments from 122 to 525 and listed grade spans ranging from K-only to K–8. Six have all-grades test results for 2025–26; Rincon Valley Partnership has no reported science result, and Yulupa Elementary has supplied results only for 2024–25. Across the six schools with current results, average ELA and math proficiency was 48% and 36%, below California’s 49% and 38%; average science proficiency was 53%, above the state’s 36%. The clearest takeaway is that results vary sharply by school, so the ZIP code does not have one consistent academic profile.

Santa Rosa French-American Charter (SRFACS) leads the 2025–26 results in all three subjects: 65% in ELA, 55% in math, and 71% in science, or 16, 16, and 35 points above the state. Bennett Valley Charter and Village Elementary Charter are also above the state in all three subjects. At the lower end, Rincon Valley Partnership reported 9% in ELA and 0% in math, while Manzanita Elementary Charter had the lowest ELA and math results among the other schools with current scores—35% and 22%—but its science score of 39% was slightly above the state. Yulupa’s older results look strong, but are not directly comparable with the latest results.

Recent trends differ by subject: among five schools with results in both years, average ELA fell by 1 point and math by 2 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while science rose by 12 points. Village had a particularly large science gain of 30 points; Manzanita gained 20 points in science even as its math score fell by 8. SchoolDigger’s rankings also rose for SRFACS, from the 74th percentile in 2023–24 to the 79th in 2025–26, and for Village, from the 66th to the 71st between 2024–25 and 2025–26. All seven schools reported free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–25, ranging from 32% at Yulupa to 54% at Manzanita; those figures describe school context, not a cause of scores. Student–teacher ratios ranged from 9.3 at Rincon to 24.3 at Bennett in 2024–25, but the available figures show no simple relationship between ratios and results.
