In 2025–2026, the school scored above California’s proficiency rates in English language arts (ELA) and math and was nearly level with the state in science. Its clearest strength is ELA: it outperformed the state, its district, and the nearby-school average.

ELA proficiency was 60%, compared with 49% statewide, 59% in the Fullerton Elementary district, and a 49% average among nearby schools with results. Math was 51%, well above the state’s 38% and 9 points above the nearby-school average, but about level with the district’s 52%. Results varied by grade: fifth-grade math was 37%, 25 points below fourth grade’s 61%. Science was 35%—about level with the state’s 36%, but below the district’s 42% and just 1 point above the nearby-school average. The school’s overall SchoolDigger standing was fourth among ten nearby schools.
