Summary:
The Antelope Elementary district includes four schools—two elementary and two middle schools—with enrollments from 20 to 442 students. In 2025–2026, results differed by subject and school: Antelope Elementary, Berrendos Middle, Lassen-Antelope Volcanic Academy (LAVA), and Plum Valley Elementary did not show one consistent pattern across ELA, math, and science. The clearest group-wide strength is math: the unweighted school average was 34%, about 4 percentage points below the state’s 38%, compared with gaps of 10 points in ELA and 6 points in science.
LAVA led reported all-grades ELA and science, at 51% and 38%—about 2 points above the state in each—while its math result was 33%, 5 points below the state. Berrendos had the highest math result at 39%, just above Antelope at 38%, which matched the state. Plum Valley had the lowest reported ELA and math results, 27% in each—22 points below the state in ELA and 11 points below in math. Its science score is suppressed, and its enrollment is only 20, so its results should be read in that context.
Recent changes were mixed rather than pointing to broad improvement: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, the school average fell 3 points in ELA and science but rose 1 point in math. LAVA improved 11 points in ELA and 8 in math, while Antelope fell 11 points in ELA and 13 in science. Grade results also vary: LAVA scored 65% in seventh-grade ELA but 35% in eighth-grade ELA. SchoolDigger’s percentile rankings moved from the 37th to the 56th for LAVA, but fell from the 61st to 42nd for Antelope and from the 68th to 55th for Berrendos. The 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible figures ranged from 52% at Berrendos to 70% at Plum Valley, with no consistent ordering of results by this measure.
