Summary:
ZIP code 20005 has one listed school, Thomson Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through Grade 5 and enrolling 259 students. With no other school in the ZIP-code list, it is the only local point of comparison—not a leader or a trailer among area schools. The most important finding is that its 2025–2026 all-grades results were mixed: mathematics was 3 percentage points above the state, while ELA was 2 points below it.
There is no top or bottom school to compare within the ZIP code; instead, Thomson’s results vary by subject and grade. In 2025–2026, all-grades mathematics was 31% for the school, compared with 28% statewide and 33% districtwide; ELA was 38%, versus 40% statewide and 44% districtwide. Grade 3 mathematics was 4 points above the state, but Grade 4 mathematics was 3 points below it. ELA was below the state in both reported grades: 2 points in Grade 3 and 12 points in Grade 4. The largest reported grade-level gap was Grade 4 ELA, 19 points below the district. The supplied school results do not include Grade 5 ELA or mathematics.
Recent results moved in opposite directions by subject: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, all-grades ELA fell by 2 points, from 39% to 38%, while the state rose by 2 points; mathematics rose by 4 points, from 27% to 31%, as the state rose by 2. SchoolDigger rated Thomson 3 stars in both years, with its ranking moving from the 65th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 57th in 2025–2026; it was at the 40th percentile and rated 2 stars in 2023–2024.
