Summary:

The Simi Valley Unified school district operates 27 schools serving grades K-12, with a mix of 19 elementary, 3 middle, 4 high, and 1 alternative school, providing a comprehensive public education system for approximately 13,000 students in the area.

Academic performance varies significantly across the district, with clear standout schools and others needing support. Santa Susana High and Vista Elementary are top performers, earning 5-star ratings with exceptional test scores and graduation rates. In contrast, Apollo High and Park View Elementary face substantial challenges, with much lower rankings and proficiency rates. The district's three middle schools—Hillside Middle, Valley View Middle, and Sinaloa Middle—also show a performance range, with Hillside being the strongest.

Overall, the district outperforms state averages in English Language Arts and Science, and boasts a high 94.9% graduation rate. However, mathematics proficiency is a notable challenge, especially at the comprehensive high schools like Simi Valley High and Royal High. Attendance is strongly linked to achievement; schools with the lowest chronic absenteeism, such as Vista and Hollow Hills Elementary, consistently rank highest, while those with high absenteeism struggle more academically.
