Summary

Wiley Canyon Elementary serves 388 students in grades K–6 in Newhall, within the Newhall district. Its 2025–2026 results show a clear academic concern: in both English language arts and math, it ranked second-lowest among the 11 nearby schools, ahead of only Newhall Elementary.

Science is the relative bright spot: Wiley’s proficiency was 40%, above the state’s 36%, though 14 points below the district and below the nearby-school average of 51%. ELA and math results were 49% and 37%, respectively, compared with nearby-school averages of 67% and 62%. Wiley was 20 points below the district in ELA and 26 points below in math. Its ELA result was just under the state’s—49.1% versus 49.3%—and math was also below the state, at 37% versus 38%. Wiley’s 21.5 students per teacher was the lowest ratio among the nearby schools, a notable contrast with its results but not evidence that staffing caused them.

Over time, science has improved while ELA and math have slipped: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, science rose 11 points, ELA fell 2 points, and math fell 7 points. The latest year was weaker in all three subjects than 2024–2025. SchoolDigger ranked Wiley at the 58th percentile and gave it 3 stars in 2025–2026, down 10 percentile points from 2023–2024; only Newhall ranked lower among the nearby schools. In 2024–2025, 79% of Wiley students were eligible for free/reduced lunch, the third-highest share among nearby schools reporting that measure. One SchoolDigger subgroup result stands out as a relative strength: English Language Learner Students ranked at the 86th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school’s overall 69th percentile. Male Students’ ranking declined from the 67th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 49th in 2025–2026.
