While Mission Valley Elementary has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (83-87%) and English Language Learners, its academic performance is generally lower than the district and state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 5th-grade reading proficiency rate was 46.49%, compared to the district's 63.06% and the state's 57.83%.
