Summary

Sierra Vista Elementary in Norco serves 395 students in grades K–6 in the Corona-Norco Unified area. Its all-grade ELA and math results are close to state averages, but science is a much more serious concern: in 2025–2026, 18% of students were proficient in science, compared with 36% statewide and 41% districtwide. Sierra Vista had the lowest science result among the ten nearby schools, making science its clearest weakness.

Sixth grade is a bright spot, while results in some earlier grades are much weaker. Sixth-grade ELA proficiency was 68%, above the state’s 48% and district’s 63%; third-grade ELA was 30%, below the state’s 44% and district’s 50%. In math, sixth grade reached 42%, above the state’s 37%, but fourth- and fifth-grade results were 30% and 28%. Overall, Sierra Vista’s ELA rate of 47% and math rate of 36% were each about 3 points below the state, and 11 and 9 points below the district, respectively. Its results were also below nearby-school averages: 4 points in ELA and 8 in math. Science was 18 points below the state and 15 points below the nearby average.

Scores have not kept pace with statewide improvement: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Sierra Vista’s ELA rose by less than 1 point and math by less than 1 point, while science fell by 2 points; the state improved in all three subjects. The latest science score also dropped 13 points from the prior year. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 49th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 58th percentile the year before. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 20.7, below the nearby same-district average of about 24. Its free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 80% in 2024–2025, compared with a nearby average of 74%. SchoolDigger’s effectiveness ranking for White students was at the 26th percentile, 23 points below the school’s overall standing; its Special Education Students ranking rose from the 34th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 63rd in 2025–2026.
