Summary:

The Ross Valley Charter District has one elementary school, Ross Valley Charter, serving kindergarten through grade 5, with 198 students. In 2025–2026, the school’s proficiency rates were above California’s in all three reported subjects: 68% versus 49% in ELA, 52% versus 38% in math, and 51% versus 36% in science. The school’s advantages were 18 points in ELA, 14 in math, and 15 in science. The most important finding is that it outperformed the state in every reported subject in both years of results.

There are no other schools in the district list, so Ross Valley Charter is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in the area by default. Within its 2025–2026 results, ELA had the largest state advantage, while math had the smallest. Grade-level results show more variation in math: grade 3 scored 65%, compared with 43% in grade 5, a 22-point difference. ELA ranged from 62% in grade 5 to 74% in grade 4. These results offer a snapshot across grades, not a comparison between local schools.

Results shifted unevenly from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: the school’s ELA rate rose 1 point, math fell 4 points, and science rose 8 points. Its lead over the state stayed nearly unchanged in ELA, narrowed by 5 points in math, and widened by 5 points in science. SchoolDigger gave the school four stars in each of the three ranking years shown; its statewide percentile position declined from 86 in 2023–2024 to 79 in 2025–2026. Other context includes a 24.7 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025, and 25% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 10% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 18% rate.
