Summary:
Valley Home, California, is served by a single K-8 elementary school, Valley Home Elementary, which enrolls 191 students within the Valley Home Joint Elementary District.
Valley Home Elementary shows notable strengths, including an exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of 2.6% compared to the state average, suggesting strong student engagement. The school's statewide ranking has also improved over the past three years. Academically, performance varies significantly by grade, with third graders performing relatively well in English and math, while middle school grades, particularly sixth grade in English, and science proficiency across tested grades, fall well below state averages.
With moderate per-student spending and a student-teacher ratio of 21-to-1, the school serves a community where about one-third of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The consistent 2-star rating and below-average test scores, especially in science, indicate areas for potential focus, but the very high attendance and upward ranking trend are positive signs for this small, rural school community.
