Summary
Valley View High is a 2,699-student grades 9–12 school in Moreno Valley, California, and part of Moreno Valley Unified. Its clearest academic strength is English Language Arts/Literacy (ELA): 60% of students were proficient in 2025–26, compared with 49% statewide and 35% districtwide. The most important finding for families is that ELA is a standout locally, too: Valley View ranked second among nearby 9–12 schools with results, behind only Canyon Springs High.
Math is the largest academic gap against the state, but Valley View performs well compared with nearby schools. In 2025–26, 22% were proficient in math, versus 38% statewide and 20% districtwide; Valley View had the highest math result among the nearby 9–12 schools in the comparison. Science proficiency was 27%, below the state’s 36%, and ranked third among those local schools. Completion results are strong: graduation was 96%, compared with 93% districtwide and 88% statewide, while the dropout rate was 2%, versus 4% and 8%. Chronic absenteeism is a concern: 27% of students were chronically absent, above the district’s 25% and state’s 18%.
Results have improved since 2022–23: ELA rose 7 percentage points, math 6 points and science 13 points. The state gap narrowed in math, from 19 points to 16, and science, from 16 points to 9.
