Summary

Dolores Huerta International Academy is a K–6 elementary school in Fontana Unified School District, serving 639 students in an area with several nearby elementary schools for comparison. In 2025–26, it ranked first among 10 nearby schools in English language arts (ELA) and science, and second in math. Its results are below California’s averages in ELA and math, but just above the state average in science. The key takeaway is that Dolores Huerta is a local academic leader, especially in science, even though its ELA and math results have not caught up with the state.

Science is its strongest all-grades result: 36% of students were proficient, about 17 percentage points above the nearby-school average and 11 points above Fontana Unified; the result was also just above California’s. ELA proficiency was 43%—6 points below the state, but 2 above the district and 12 above nearby schools’ average. Math was 30%, 8 points below the state, 4 above the district and 8 above the nearby average; the school placed second locally, behind Ted Porter. Results also vary by grade: ELA is much stronger in grades 5–6, while grade 4 is a weak spot in both ELA and math.

Science proficiency rose from 28% in 2022–23 to 36% in 2025–26, while chronic absenteeism fell from 9% in 2024–25 to 8% in 2025–26, below the district’s 20% and state’s 18%. SchoolDigger rates the school at the 46th percentile statewide, ranking it 3,140 of 5,804 schools with 2 stars; its percentile fell 5 points from the prior year, but remains above nearby schools, whose percentiles range from 5 to 39. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings are higher for Special Education Students (67th percentile) and Low Socio Economic Status Students (62nd) than for the school overall (46th). The student-teacher ratio was 23.6 in 2024–25, and 83% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year.
