Summary

EastLake Elementary serves 527 students in grades K–6 in Chula Vista’s Chula Vista Elementary district. In 2025–2026, its all-grades proficiency rates were 57% in ELA, 47% in math and 48% in science—above state rates of 49%, 38% and 36%, and district rates of 55%, 45% and 40%. The key local comparison is less favorable: EastLake was below the average of nine nearby district K–6 schools in all three subjects.

Science is EastLake’s strongest result against state and district benchmarks: it was 12 percentage points above the state and 8 above the district. Compared with nearby schools, ELA was its closest result, 6 points below the local average of 63%; math was its largest gap, 9 points below the 55% average. Grade-level results show why the schoolwide figures need context: fourth-grade ELA was 44%, below the state’s 46% and district’s 53%, and the lowest among nearby schools. Sixth-grade math was 38%, just above the state’s 37% but below the district’s 46%, and also lowest locally. Fifth-grade ELA was a brighter spot at 69%, 20 points above the state and 11 above the district.

ELA proficiency fell 5 percentage points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, while math fell 9; science rose 4. EastLake remains above state and district results, but those advantages have narrowed. SchoolDigger rated the school at the 71st percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 80th percentile in 2022–2023; its rank was 1,664 of 5,804. The reported student–teacher ratio was 19.5 in 2024–2025, the lowest among the nearby schools. Free/reduced lunch eligible was 38% in 2024–2025, below the nearby-school average of 39%. Attendance improved: chronic absenteeism fell from 25% in 2022–2023 to 11% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 11.4% and state’s 18%, though it remained the third-highest among the 10 local schools. One subgroup result stands out in SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves Disabled Students: its percentile rose from 66 in 2018–2019 to 91 in 2021–2022, while the overall percentile fell from 87 to 79.
