Summary

Valley View Elementary is a K–5 school in Riverside, serving 675 students in Alvord Unified. Its results show a clear contrast: core test proficiency is below state levels, but chronic absenteeism is unusually low. In 2025–26, 9% of students were chronically absent, compared with 19% districtwide and 18% statewide; that was the lowest rate among the nearby schools, well below the next-lowest, La Granada Elementary, at 13%. The most important finding is that attendance is a marked bright spot even as academic proficiency remains below the state in English, math, and science.

Math is the school’s strongest core subject against its district and nearby peers, while science is weakest among nearby schools and English has the widest state gap. In 2025–26, math proficiency was 27%—about 1 point above the district and the nearby Alvord-school average, but 12 points below the state. English proficiency was 30%, 9 points below the district and 19 below the state. Science was 20%, 8 points below the district and 16 below the state; the nearby-school average was 27%, and only La Granada scored lower. Grade results also vary: third-grade English and math were above district results, while fifth-grade English was the lowest among nearby Alvord schools and fifth-grade math was second-lowest.

Over four years, math proficiency rose by 1 point, English fell by 1 point, and science rose by 5 points after peaking in 2024–25; meanwhile, the state gap widened in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranks Valley View in the 24th percentile statewide, with 1 star, and places it at 4,429 of 5,804 schools. Its student-teacher ratio was 23.1 in 2024–25, the highest among the listed nearby schools. In that school year, 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; separately, all students receive free meals through Community Eligibility. SchoolDigger’s ranking for effectiveness with Homeless Students was 49th percentile in 2025–26, compared with 24th overall, down from 65 the year before. Its English Language Learner Students ranking also fell sharply, from the 38th percentile in 2022–23 to the 9th in 2023–24.
