School Overview

Taft Elementary sits in south Stockton, a working-class part of the city where families are deeply rooted in the community and schools serve as an important anchor for the neighborhood. The school faces real academic challenges, scoring in the lower percentiles statewide, though its science scores show a bit more promise relative to its other subjects. Families who are exploring options in this part of Stockton may want to weigh those numbers carefully and ask the school directly about the support systems and programs in place for students.
