Summary:

The area list contains one school, Breakthrough Montessori PCS, an elementary school serving PK–6 with 383 students. In 2025–26, its all-grades results were below state rates in both ELA and math: about 31% versus 40% in ELA, and 17% versus 28% in math. The most important finding is that both subjects trail the state, with the larger gap in math—12 points, compared with 9 points in ELA.

Within the school, 4th- and 5th-grade ELA stand out positively against the state, while 3rd-grade ELA and the reported math grades are below state rates. Fourth-grade ELA was 43% versus 39% statewide, and 5th-grade ELA was 41% versus 40%. In contrast, 3rd-grade ELA was 13% versus 31%, a gap of 19 points; 3rd-grade math was 19% versus 41%, and 5th-grade math was 14% versus 30%. School results are not reported for 6th-grade ELA or 4th- and 6th-grade math, and because only one school is listed, there is no meaningful school-to-school comparison.

Results changed modestly over the two reported years, with math gains stronger than ELA gains. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, the school’s math rate rose by 3 points, compared with a 2-point state increase; ELA rose by 1 point, while the state rose by 2 points. SchoolDigger’s percentile ranking dipped from 52 in 2023–24 to 41 in 2024–25, then rebounded to 47 in 2025–26; its star rating went from 3 to 2 and stayed there. For context, the school reported a 16.6:1 student-teacher ratio and 24% directly certified for free meals, sy 2024–2025; these are observations about the school, not explanations for its results.
