Zip code 95615 in Courtland, California, contains one elementary school, Bates Elementary, serving grades K-6 within the River Delta Joint Unified district, and it stands out for its remarkable academic improvement in recent years.

Bates Elementary has shown a dramatic turnaround, jumping from the 19th percentile of all California schools two years ago to the 62nd percentile for the 2024-2025 school year. This impressive growth is highlighted by particularly strong performance in the upper grades, with 6th graders achieving 75% proficiency in English and 56% in math, significantly exceeding both district and state averages. The school consistently outperforms its district across most academic metrics.

While the school's progress is notable, there are areas for continued focus.
