Summary

Jurupa Vista Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 388 students in Fontana, part of the Colton Joint Unified School District, which faces significant academic challenges across the area.

Academically, the school is struggling, with its statewide ranking falling from the 39th to the 20th percentile over the last three years; math scores are a particular concern, with only 16.67% of students proficient, far below the state average. The school has significant difficulty serving English Learners and students with special needs, ranking at the 0th and 10th percentiles for these groups respectively. Interestingly, despite these challenges and a high per-student spending of $24,203, nearby schools in the Fontana Unified district like Oak Park Elementary and Canyon Crest Elementary achieve higher rankings with much lower funding.

However, Jurupa Vista has a clear strength in dramatically improving student attendance, reducing chronic absenteeism from 39% to 13.3%, which is now better than the district and state averages and better than many local schools like Poplar Elementary (27.1%). The school also performs slightly above its district average in science. This success in attendance shows the school's capacity for positive change, which could be a foundation for addressing its academic gaps.
