Summary

OUSD EDGE Virtual Academy is a 229-student K–12 alternative school in Orange, California, in the Orange Unified area. Its 2025–2026 all-grade proficiency rates were 64% in English language arts (ELA), 60% in math and 55% in science. The most important finding is that EDGE outperformed the state in all three subjects, with its clearest advantage in math: 22 percentage points above the state.

EDGE’s results were also above district averages by 5 points in ELA, 13 in math and 8 in science. Among nearby schools with reported scores, it ranked third of six in ELA and second in math and science; Orange County Classical Academy scored higher in all three subjects, and Tustin Connect scored higher in ELA. The all-grade picture does not tell the whole story: eighth-grade ELA was 43%, below the state’s 49%, and eighth-grade science was 40%, below the district’s 49%. Eighth-grade math was stronger at 60%, above both state and district results.

EDGE’s proficiency has risen since 2022–2023: 15 percentage points in ELA, 30 in math and 17 in science, while its advantage over the state widened in every subject. In 2024–2025, the student–teacher ratio was 15.9, the third-lowest among nine listed schools, and 43% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. That income measure was 54% in 2022–2023. SchoolDigger’s supplied rating is for Orange Unified, not EDGE: the district ranked 284 of 968, in the 71st percentile, with four stars; a school-level rank and rating were not provided.
