Summary:
Geyserville has three schools serving kindergarten through grade 12: Geyserville Elementary (K–5), Geyserville New Technical Academy (grades 6–12) and Buena Vista High (grades 9–12). The 2025–2026 proficiency results cover the first two schools; Buena Vista has eight students and no supplied test scores. The main takeaway is that the area has very different results by school: Elementary is above the state in ELA and math, while New Technical Academy is below the state in all three reported subjects, and the two-school average has its largest gap in science.
Geyserville Elementary leads the schools with reported results in every subject: its proficiency was 51% in ELA, 49% in math and 20% in science, compared with 21%, 13% and 7% at New Technical Academy. That is a 30-point ELA gap, 36 points in math and 13 points in science. Elementary was 2 points above the state in ELA and 10 points above in math, but 16 points below in science. New Technical Academy was 28 points below the state in ELA, 25 in math and 29 in science. Grade-level results add important detail: at Elementary, fourth-grade math was 4 points above the state, while fifth-grade math was 17 points below; at New Technical Academy, seventh-grade math was 6 points below the state, while sixth-grade ELA was 37 points below.
Recent results moved in opposite directions at the two schools in ELA and math. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Elementary improved 6 points in ELA and 25 in math, while science dipped 1 point; New Technical Academy fell 17 points in ELA, 6 in math and 17 in science. SchoolDigger’s percentile rank also declined for both: New Technical Academy went from 80 to 29, and Elementary from 61 to 40; their ratings shifted from four to one star and three to two stars, respectively. As context, in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares were 58% at Elementary and 55% at New Technical Academy, while student-teacher ratios were 17.8 and 10.2. In 2025–2026, chronic absenteeism was 29% at New Technical Academy and 15% at Elementary, compared with 18% statewide; New Technical Academy’s graduation rate was 91%, above the state’s 88%.
