Summary

Caryn Elementary is a K–5 school serving 553 students in Alta Loma, in the Etiwanda Elementary District. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates exceeded California’s in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but performance varied by subject. The central finding for families is that science is Caryn’s clearest relative strength, while ELA is its weakest showing against the district and nearby schools.

Science stands out locally: 57% of Caryn students were proficient, about 8 percentage points above the district and 7 points above the nearby-school average, placing Caryn third among the 11 schools. ELA proficiency was 64%, 5 points below the district and 4 points below the nearby average; Caryn ranked eighth. Math was 64%—3 points above the district and essentially level with the nearby average—placing sixth. All three results were above state rates: by 15 points in ELA, 26 in math and 21 in science. Grade-level results also differ: third-grade ELA was 56%, while fifth-grade math was 67%, 6 points above the district’s fifth-grade result.

Results have declined over the four reported years: ELA fell 5 percentage points, math 8 and science 3, even as Caryn remained above state proficiency. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 7 points and math 3, while science rose 1. Caryn ranked in the 84th percentile statewide on SchoolDigger, with 4 stars, down 4 percentile points from the prior year; its 23.9 student-teacher ratio is near the middle of the nearby range. Its free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 24.1% in 2024–2025, compared with a nearby-school average of 33.7%. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves White students placed Caryn at the 49th percentile, 35 points below its overall standing; that group’s ranking fell 18 points over two years. For Asian students, the measure was at the 61st percentile, down 26 points from 2023–2024.
