Summary

Quail Valley Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 528 students in the Menifee Union district, notable for achieving strong academic results while serving a community where a high percentage of families face economic challenges.

Academically, the school shines, with student proficiency in math (48.98%) and science (35.96%) notably exceeding California state averages. This is particularly impressive when compared to other local schools with similar student populations, such as Railway Elementary in the Perris Elementary district, where proficiency rates are significantly lower. Within its own district, Quail Valley's math scores are over 10 points higher than the average, outperforming nearby Ridgemoor Elementary and nearly matching the scores of Taawila Elementary, which serves a far less economically disadvantaged community.

The school has shown remarkable progress in key areas, achieving a dramatic 75% reduction in chronic student absenteeism over three years—a rate now better than both the district and state. It also demonstrates exceptional effectiveness with students from low-income families, ranking in the 82nd percentile statewide for that group. While the virtual school in the district, Menifee Virtual, struggles with lower scores, Quail Valley delivers these strong outcomes efficiently, spending less per student than several comparable schools in the area.

Open Quote Not a good school. This school doesn't care about your children. My kid has been left out of so many activities because "he is different" not the way a little kid should grow up. Don't recommend this school. There is severe lack of communication with parents. Staff has biased opinions on students and parents due to them not being Hispanic/Spanish speaking. 0 out of 5 is what I would rate this school if it was an option. Close Quote
