Trapp is an awesome school, when Mrs. Smith left I thought oh no we are going to lose a great principal (and we did) but Mr. Sosa came in and has done a terrific job! I was sad to leave Trapp School my son is in 6th grade now. Trapp is more like a family to me I love all the teachers and staff there. I still go and help out when I can. I will miss all my teachers that my son had! Miss Stumpf was great! Best 4 and 5th grade teacher you could ever have! If your a student at Trapp you are one lucky kid.

About these ratings

The test results by subgroup show how the designated group of students is performing in comparison to the general population.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
