Summary

Vista del Valle Elementary is a 264-student K–6 school in Claremont, part of Claremont Unified. Its clearest academic pattern is a split: English language arts (ELA) is stronger than the state and nearby-school averages, while math and science are weaker and have declined over time.

ELA is the school’s relative strength: 51% of students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 49% statewide and a 41% average across 10 nearby schools. But that result was 13 percentage points below the district’s 64%, and Vista trailed the other three listed Claremont schools in ELA. Math and science are the main concerns: proficiency was 32% in math and 27% in science, below state results of 38% and 36%, district results of 54% and 53%, and nearby-school averages of 33% and 28%. Fourth-grade ELA stands out positively at 58%, while fifth-grade math was 17%, compared with 37% statewide. Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 12%, below the district’s 14% and the state’s 18%.

Over four years, ELA rose by 3 percentage points, but math and science each fell by about 6 points; their state comparisons shifted from above average to below. SchoolDigger ranks Vista 2,728th of 5,804 California schools, at the 53rd percentile with 3 stars, a middle-of-the-pack standing among the 11 nearby schools. The school is small but has a relatively high 2024–25 student-teacher ratio of 26.4. In 2024–25, 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below the 73% nearby-school average. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for Hispanic Students is a notable strength: the school is at the 68th percentile for serving this group, 15 points above its overall percentile.
