Summary

Cypress Elementary is a K–5 school with 558 students in Covina, California, and is part of Covina-Valley Unified. Its results are uneven: math is a relative strength, while fourth grade stands out amid weaker results in other tested grades. The clearest concern is science: in 2025–26, just 19% of students were proficient, 17 percentage points below the state and 15 below the district.

Math is the school’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools and the state, though it remains slightly below the district. Proficiency was 41%, about 3 points above the state and the nearby-school average, but 1 point below the district. ELA proficiency was 43%, nearly matching the nearby-school average, but 6 points below the state and 10 below the district. Science was weaker than the nearby-school average of 27%, and ranked seventh among the 11 schools in the comparison. Grade-level results show an important bright spot: fourth-grade ELA proficiency was 62% and math was 52%, the highest among the 11 schools for both subjects. In contrast, fifth-grade math was 26%, 10 points below the state.

Over time, math has improved while ELA and science have lost ground: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, math rose 6 percentage points, ELA fell 3, and science fell 11. Cypress Elementary was at the 49th percentile and received 2 stars in SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 statewide ranking, a middle-of-the-pack result among nearby schools. Its reported student-teacher ratio was 26.1 in 2024–25, the second-highest among the 11 schools, and 79% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, close to the nearby-school average. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students was notably stronger, at the 76th percentile in 2025–26 compared with the school’s overall 49th percentile.
