Summary:
Zip code 62685 has one listed school, Shipman Elementary School, serving grades 3–4 and enrolling 155 students, so families have no other school in this data set to compare with it. In 2025–2026, 74% of Shipman students were proficient in ELA and 54% in math, compared with 56% and 40% statewide. The most important takeaway is that Shipman was well above the state in both subjects, especially ELA: its advantage was 18 percentage points in ELA and 15 points in math.
Shipman is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in this one-school group, so there is no meaningful between-school range. It also exceeded Southwestern CUSD 9 by 5 points in all-grades ELA and 13 points in math. The clearest difference is between grades in math: proficiency was 61% in grade 3 but 45% in grade 4, a 17-point drop. That leaves grade 4 just 3 points above the state, while grade 3 is 12 points above. ELA is a more consistent strength: results were 72% in grade 3 and 77% in grade 4, at least 21 points above the state in each grade.
Scores improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: Shipman gained 3 points in ELA and 1 point in math, though its lead over the state narrowed slightly in ELA and widened slightly in math. SchoolDigger gives the school four stars and ranks it 488th of 1,737 schools, in the 72nd percentile; that percentile is 6 points below its 78th-percentile result in each of the prior two years. Context measures for 2024–2025 include a student–teacher ratio of 12.0 and 47% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch. Because there is only one school listed, these figures cannot show how Shipman compares with similar schools.
