Summary

Peralta Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 443 students in the Jurupa Unified School District in Jurupa Valley, a high-need area where the school has shown consistent academic improvement in recent years.

When compared to other schools in its own district, Peralta stands out as a stronger performer. Its students score higher in English, math, and science than the district average and outperform peers at nearby schools like West Riverside Elementary, Rustic Lane Elementary, and Ina Arbuckle Elementary. The school has also made remarkable progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, now posting a rate better than both the district and state averages. Furthermore, Peralta shows particular strength in supporting its Special Education students, whose outcomes have improved dramatically.

It's important to understand that all Jurupa Unified schools face challenges, ranking in the bottom half of the state. While Peralta is a leader within its district, schools in neighboring Riverside Unified, such as Adams Elementary and Jefferson Elementary, often have higher test scores despite having larger classes and lower per-student spending. This context highlights that Peralta is on a positive trajectory, making measurable gains for its students within a challenging broader environment.
