Summary

Ocean View Hills is an elementary school in San Diego, California, serving 985 students in grades K-5. It is part of the San Ysidro Elementary School District, which is ranked 1098 out of 1565 districts in the state.

Ocean View Hills consistently outperforms the San Ysidro district and the state of California in academic assessments, with 59.96% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy and 50.89% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 37.82% and 28.28% for the district, respectively. The school also excels in Science, with 49.19% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to 29.67% for the district. Ocean View Hills ranks among the top schools in California for the performance of African American, Hispanic, English Language Learner, Special Education, and low-income students.

While Ocean View Hills outperforms nearby schools in the San Ysidro district, its performance is more mixed when compared to schools in the Chula Vista Elementary and South Bay Union districts. The school's relatively lower percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients (31.37%) compared to nearby schools suggests a more diverse student population, which may contribute to its strong academic results. However, Ocean View Hills has a higher student-teacher ratio of 23.4, which could be an area for improvement.
