Teague Elementary, Fresno CA - Test Scores & Data

Original Research by School Decision on Teague Elementary

Teague Elementary is a kindergarten-through-sixth-grade school in Fresno serving roughly six hundred students, most of whom live in low-income households. The school sits in a part of Fresno that is car-dependent, with limited walkability; the immediate neighborhood is typical of much of the city's sprawl. The school's primary draw is its elementary grades, which carry the full arc of K-6, rather than any specialized program or magnet designation.

Academically, Teague's performance on California state assessments is consistently below the midpoint among schools across Fresno County. In English language arts, students in the school's tested grades (three through six) show uneven proficiency. Third grade is particularly soft, while sixth grade is the strongest point, with proficiency in the low double-digit range. Math proficiency is generally lower than language arts across the school. Third grade math proficiency is notably weak, fourth and fifth grade sit in the low double digits to low thirties, and sixth grade drops into the low twenties. Fifth grade science proficiency was also low. Only one year of state assessment data is available, so trend information is not yet available to show whether results are stable, improving, or changing.

The school's student body is predominantly Hispanic, with substantial shares of Black and Asian students as well. A very large majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, reflecting the economic circumstances of the families the school serves. Data on English learner enrollment and special education identification were not available from the sources provided.

Housing in the Fresno zip code where Teague is located runs below the state median, and rents are moderate. The area reflects broader Fresno economic conditions: agricultural employment is much higher than the national average, and the economy is anchored by government, healthcare, and services alongside agriculture-linked manufacturing. Unemployment is modest. Downtown Fresno is undergoing revitalization, with new housing, infrastructure investment, and plans for a future high-speed rail station, though these developments are still emerging and concentrated downtown rather than in the school's immediate neighborhood.

Parents considering this school should recognize that proficiency outcomes are weak across both core subjects, and a parent may want to look into the school's strategies for literacy and math instruction, whether there are targeted interventions for struggling learners, and what the school's growth trajectory has been in prior years. The school serves a high-need population with limited resources typical of Title I schools in the region. Whether those conditions are being met with effective support would be worth exploring directly with school leadership.

This schoolCentral Unified, same grade

Graduation rate (ACGR) reflects the federally published Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate for the most recent year available. We refresh this data annually at the close of each academic year in June. The federal source publishes a banded rate (for example, "90-94%") instead of an exact number for cohorts small enough to risk identifying individual students. The state distribution chart, where shown, plots every school in the state with a published rate or band; schools whose rate is federally suppressed are excluded. Where the federal source publishes a band rather than an exact rate, the school is placed within its band using a stable, ID-derived offset, so its position is consistent across visits.
