Best Public Schools in Zip Code 95691

Summary:

The 95691 zip code area of West Sacramento, California is home to 12 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools. This diverse educational landscape features both high-performing standouts and schools facing significant challenges, highlighting the need for targeted interventions to address educational inequities in the region.

Sacramento Valley Charter, a public charter elementary school, stands out as a top performer, ranking among the best in the state and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Westmore Oaks Elementary and Westfield Village Elementary struggle with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The data suggests a correlation between socioeconomic status, as indicated by free or reduced-price lunch eligibility, and academic performance.

The presence of public charter schools, such as Washington Middle College High, which ranks 65th out of 2,323 high schools in California, highlights the potential benefits of school choice. However, the stark contrasts in performance across the region underscore the need to address educational inequities and ensure that all students have access to high-quality learning opportunities, regardless of their socioeconomic background. Addressing chronic absenteeism, particularly at Yolo High, will also be crucial in improving student outcomes across the 95691 zip code area.
