Summary

Parkview is an alternative school serving 259 students in grades K–12 in Placentia, within the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified area. In 2025–26, its all-grades proficiency rates were above California’s in English language arts (ELA), math and science. The clearest standout is math: Parkview scored above both the state and its district, and higher than nearby schools with reported all-grades results.

Compared with the state, Parkview was ahead by 16 points in ELA (65% versus 49%), 25 points in math (63% versus 38%) and 12 points in science (48% versus 36%). Its district comparison was more mixed: ELA was 2 points lower and science 4 points lower, while math was 6 points higher. Among five nearby schools with math results, Parkview had the highest score, about 1 point above Orange County Classical Academy. ELA was above the nearby-school average of 54%, but below Buena Vista Virtual Academy and Orange County Classical Academy. Science was a relative weakness: Parkview’s score was below all three nearby schools with results, whose average was 58%.

Since 2022–23, ELA has declined 12 points and science 7, while math has risen 1 point; all three remain above state proficiency rates. Other measures add important context: chronic absenteeism was 20% in 2025–26, above the district’s 14% and state’s 18%, and the reported graduation rate was 89%, below the district’s 97%. Parkview’s student-teacher ratio was 34.2:1 in 2024–25, compared with a 16.1:1 average among nearby schools with reported ratios. Its free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 30% that year, versus a 49% nearby-school average. SchoolDigger ranks the district 174th of 968 districts, at the 82nd percentile, with four stars; it does not provide a school-level rank or star rating for Parkview.
