Summary:

The Pleasant Valley school district in Camarillo, California, consists of 11 schools serving grades K-8, with nine elementary schools and two middle schools, all performing above the state average as a whole.

Among the standout schools, La Mariposa is the district's top performer with exceptional test scores, followed by strong schools like Santa Rosa Technology Magnet and Tierra Linda Elementary. In contrast, Pleasant Valley School of Engineering and Arts and Monte Vista Middle face significant challenges, particularly in mathematics proficiency and student attendance rates.

Key findings show a notable drop in math scores at the middle school level compared to elementary grades, and that higher per-student spending, as seen at Dos Caminos Elementary, does not automatically lead to better academic results. The district's overall chronic absenteeism rate is much lower than the state average, with schools like Las Posas Elementary having excellent attendance, which correlates strongly with higher performance.
