Summary

Summit Academy serves 767 students in kindergarten through eighth grade in Winchester, within Temecula Valley Unified. Its 2025–26 all-grade proficiency rates were 66% in English language arts, 61% in math and 59% in science, above both district and state rates in all three subjects. The biggest local distinction is science: Summit had the highest result among nearby schools reporting scores, while also ranking near the top in ELA and math.

Summit’s strongest comparison is science: its 59% proficiency rate was 23 points above California and 8 points above the district, and 13 points above the average of eight nearby schools. Math was also well ahead of the state (61% versus 38%) and district (52%), and second among nearby schools. ELA was 17 points above the state and 2 points above the district. Grade results show an important exception: fifth-grade ELA reached 79%, higher than every nearby school’s result, but fourth-grade ELA was 54%, 8 points below the district’s 63%. Summit also led nearby schools with reported results in fourth- and fifth-grade math, at 65% in each grade.

Results rose from 2023–24 to 2025–26 by 2 points in ELA, 1 point in math and 3 points in science. Even so, the school’s lead over the state narrowed by about 2 points in both math and science; its ELA lead stayed about the same. SchoolDigger ranks Summit at the 85th percentile statewide and gives it 4 stars, tied at the percentile level with Alamos Elementary. Summit’s 24.6 student-teacher ratio in 2024–25 was higher than all but one nearby school’s reported ratio. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 21% in 2024–25, the lowest among nearby schools; California’s statewide free-meals designation means this eligibility figure should not be mistaken for access to meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking was at the 95th percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students, up from the 87th percentile in 2023–24; its ranking for Multi-racial Students was at the 58th percentile, compared with 85th overall.
