Summary:
The Tracy Joint Unified school district in California is home to 11 elementary schools serving grades K-8, with student populations ranging from 346 to 933. While the district as a whole is ranked 989 out of 1,568 districts in the state and rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, a few standout schools within the district are performing better than the district and state averages.
George Kelly Elementary is the top-performing school, ranked 1,890 out of 5,862 California elementary schools and rated 3 out of 5 stars. The school consistently outperforms the district and state in English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency, with 54.32% of students proficient or better in ELA and 37.33% in Math, compared to the district's 39.12% and 25.53%, respectively, and the state's 47.04% and 35.54%. Wanda Hirsch Elementary and Gladys Poet-Christian Elementary also stand out as performing better than the district and state in both subject areas.
In contrast, some schools within the Tracy Joint Unified district, such as North Elementary, Melville S. Jacobson Elementary, and Central Elementary, have significantly lower proficiency rates and higher chronic absenteeism, which may be correlated with their higher rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. These disparities in performance highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address the achievement gaps within the district.
