Summary:
Fruitvale Elementary has five schools: four elementary schools serving kindergarten through grade 6 and one junior high serving grades 7–8. In 2025–26, the schools averaged 52% proficiency in ELA and 40% in math, compared with 49% and 38% statewide. Science averaged 33%, below the state’s 36%; even the four elementary schools averaged 33% in science. The clearest area-wide concern is that science results lagged the state across the elementary group, too.
Different schools lead in different subjects. Fruitvale Junior High led all-grades ELA at 58%, 9 percentage points above the state and 8 points above the other schools’ average. Endeavour Elementary led math at 44%, 6 points above the state. Quailwood Elementary led science at 37%, about 1 point above the state, but was lowest in ELA and math at 47% and 37%. Discovery Elementary had the lowest science result, 29%, 7 points below the state. All-grades comparisons combine different grade spans, so grade-level results can add useful context.
Scores changed unevenly from 2024–25 to 2025–26: the five-school average rose 1 point in math and 2 in science, while ELA fell 1 point. Columbia Elementary improved in all three subjects, including a 10-point science gain; Discovery’s science score fell 9 points. Grade-level results also show contrasts: Quailwood was low in grade 3 but led the elementary schools in grade 5 ELA and math. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 statewide rankings ranged from the 56th percentile at Quailwood to the 67th at Fruitvale Junior High; since 2023–24, they rose 4 points at Endeavour and Columbia and fell 2 to 7 points at the other schools. As context, all five reported free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–25, ranging from 66% to 76%; these figures do not explain achievement differences.
