Summary

Chaparral Hills Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 547 students in the Moreno Valley Unified district, operating in a high-need community where the vast majority of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school faces significant challenges, ranking in the lower percentiles statewide, but it shows a notable relative strength in mathematics where it outperforms the district average and several nearby schools like Serrano Elementary and Ramona Elementary. Performance varies dramatically by grade, with 5th graders outperforming district averages while 4th graders struggle significantly, and there are stark differences in how the school serves different student groups, with particularly low performance for students in special education. Chronic absenteeism, while high, has shown steady improvement and is better than at some neighboring schools.

The school spends less per student than most other Moreno Valley Unified schools, such as Butterfield Language Academy. Comparisons with schools in other districts, like Victoriano Elementary in the Val Verde Unified district, suggest that improved outcomes are possible with similar student demographics, highlighting the importance of instructional practices and district support.
