Science is the school's standout strength. In 2025–2026, all-grade science proficiency was 54.95% versus 33.62% statewide — a +21.33 point advantage — with 5th grade at 56.82% vs. 32.24% (+24.58) and 8th grade at 53.73% vs. 34.33% (+19.40). English Language Arts is also strong: 58.10% vs. 44.66% state (+13.44), led by 4th grade (69.23% vs. 50.89%) and 7th grade (66.67% vs. 46.99%). Mathematics sits above the state average but by a narrower margin: 33.65% vs. 27.85% (+5.80), with the smallest gaps in 7th grade (+2.07 points) and 6th grade (+3.40 points).
Year over year, science rose from 46.60% to 54.95% while the state average declined, widening the gap from +11.46 to +21.33 points. Math also improved, from 30.52% to 33.65%. ELA slipped from 62.99% to 58.10% but remained 13.44 points above the state. In context, 46.36% of students qualified for free/reduced lunch in 2024–2025 and the student/teacher ratio was 10.2 — so strong results come without a low-poverty, high-resource profile. The main areas to watch are the ELA decline and the narrower upper-middle-grade math advantages.
