Summary:

ZIP code 95814 has one listed elementary school, Washington Elementary, serving kindergarten through grade 6 in Sacramento; the school enrolls 376 students. Because it is the only school in the list, families cannot use these figures to compare Washington with other schools in the ZIP code. The clearest concern is mathematics: in 2025–26, 28% of students were proficient, 11 percentage points below California’s 38%.

Within Washington’s results, science is strongest relative to the state, while math is the clearest weakness: science proficiency was 36%, essentially level with California and 6 points above the district; ELA was 41%, 9 points below the state. Grade results vary: fourth-grade ELA stood out at 50%, 4 points above California, while third-grade math was 26%, 21 points below the state, and fifth-grade ELA was 34%, 15 points below. These grade-level differences mean the all-grades results do not tell the whole story for every student.

Results improved in ELA and science from 2024–25 to 2025–26, rising 5 and 4 points, respectively, while math barely changed, up less than 1 point; the math gap to California widened by 1 point. SchoolDigger’s ranking moved up from the 37th percentile to the 42nd in the latest year, though it was at the 47th percentile in 2023–24. Chronic absenteeism was 29%, compared with 27% in the district and 18% statewide. Other context includes a student-teacher ratio of 22.7 and 48% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. The listed district, Sacramento City Unified, has a SchoolDigger rating of 2 stars.
