Summary:
The 95357 zip code area is home to 4 public schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools vary in their academic performance, they all serve a predominantly low-income student population, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Peter Johansen High School stands out as the largest school with 1,984 students and the highest graduation rate at 83.9%. However, its test scores, particularly in mathematics, are lower than the state averages, with only 13.71% of students proficient or better. In contrast, Norman N. Glick Middle School has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate at 40.3%, suggesting a more engaged student population.
The elementary schools, Bernard L. Hughes Elementary and Alice N. Stroud Elementary, have the smallest enrollments but generally lower test scores compared to the middle and high school. This variation in academic performance across the schools in the Empire Union Elementary and Modesto City High districts suggests that factors beyond just district-level policies and resources may be influencing the schools' outcomes.
