Compared with Burlingame Public School, the school was 5 points lower in ELA and science, but 1 point higher in math. Grade-level results show especially wide gaps in grade 5 ELA, where proficiency was 22% versus 51% statewide, and grade 4 math, at 18% versus 44%. Attendance is a more favorable comparison: chronic absenteeism was 13%, below the district’s 19% and the state’s 18%.

The three-subject average dropped from 41% to 29%, while the state average stayed near 42%.

SchoolDigger’s ranking fell from 407th of 656 schools, at the 38th percentile, in 2024–25 to 566th of 657, at the 14th percentile, in 2025–26; it assigns the school one star. These figures offer context, but with just one school listed, they cannot show how it compares with similar local schools.
