Summary

Legacy Academy is a K–8 school with 866 students in Chino, serving a community with nearby schools in surrounding cities and part of Chino Valley Unified. Its clearest concern is chronic absenteeism: in 2025–2026, 21% of students were chronically absent, compared with 14% in the district and 18% statewide; that was higher than at every nearby school, including the next-highest, Highland Elementary, by 7 percentage points. The rate improved by 2 points from the prior year, but remains a notable local outlier.

ELA is Legacy’s strongest subject against state and district benchmarks, but its results still trail local schools: 55% of students were proficient, 6 points above the state and 8 below the district, yet about 11 points below the nearby-school average. Math is the weakest result against nearby schools: 39% proficiency was just above the state’s 38%, but 12 points below the district and 22 below the peer average; Legacy ranked lowest among the schools compared. Science was also below the state and district, and Legacy was second-lowest locally. Within the school, fourth-grade ELA stands out positively at 65%, while fifth-grade results were weak across subjects.

Test scores moved in different directions from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA was essentially unchanged, math fell by 2 points, and science rose by 4 points; Legacy’s gaps to the state narrowed in all three subjects. SchoolDigger ranks Legacy 2,157th of 5,804 California schools, at the 63rd percentile with 3 stars, below every nearby school in this comparison, which ranks from the 72nd to the 93rd percentile. Its student-teacher ratio was 24.2 in 2024–2025, near the peer average of 25. In that same school year, 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below the nearby-school average of 57%; this is context, not an explanation for test results. SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for Asian students is at the 23rd percentile with 1 star, 40 percentile points below the school’s overall standing.
