Sutter Elementary

Antioch sits at the eastern edge of Contra Costa County where the suburbs start to give way to the Delta, and Sutter Elementary is one of the neighborhood schools serving families in this working-class, tight-knit part of town. Academics here are developing, with scores that sit below the state midpoint in English and math, so families who prioritize strong test performance may want to look at nearby options — but those drawn to a close community feel in an affordable area of the Bay's outer reaches will find a school that's part of the fabric of the neighborhood. It's a solid fit for families putting down roots in Antioch and looking for a local school to grow with.
