Summary

Faylane Elementary is a 466-student K–6 school in Garden Grove Unified, serving the same grade span as the ten nearby schools in this comparison. Its 2025–2026 results were above district and state averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The clearest takeaway is that Faylane led nearby schools in ELA and math while performing above the district and state in all three subjects.

Faylane’s strongest comparisons are in fifth and sixth grades: it led nearby schools in fifth-grade ELA (69%) and math (65%), and in sixth-grade ELA (68%) and math (59%). Overall, it posted 64% in ELA and 60% in math, compared with nearby-school averages of 49% and 41%. Its science result was 54%, above the nearby average of 33% but second to Agnes Ware Stanley Elementary at 58%. Faylane also exceeded Garden Grove Unified and state results in ELA (64% versus 61% and 49%), math (60% versus 52% and 38%), and science (54% versus 45% and 36%). Fourth grade is a relative soft spot: ELA was 55%, below several nearby schools, and math was 52.5%, slightly below the district’s 52.8%.

Results improved from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026 by 7 percentage points in ELA, 7 in math, and 21 in science, though progress was not steady each year. SchoolDigger ranked Faylane 1,035th of 5,804 schools, at the 82nd percentile with 4 stars—the highest nearby percentile, up from the 68th percentile in 2021–2022. Its statewide ranking for Asian Students rose from the 38th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 66th in 2025–2026, a notable improvement in how well the school serves this group compared with the same group statewide; that remains below Faylane’s overall 82nd percentile. Contextually, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 23.3, near the nearby average of 23.5, and 78% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby average of 77%.
