Summary

Telesis Academy of Science & Math is a 621-student K–8 school in West Covina, in the Rowland Unified area. Its biggest academic concern is science: in 2025–2026, 25% of students were proficient, compared with 36% statewide and 37% in the district; the school’s result was also 16 points below the nearby-school average.

ELA is Telesis’s strongest subject relative to its benchmarks, though results remain below the state and district: 47% were proficient, versus 49.3% statewide and 48.6% in the district. Math was 34%, compared with 38.4% statewide and 37.8% in the district. Among 10 nearby schools with all-grade results, Telesis’s ELA result was around the middle, while math and science were near the lower end. Grade results tell a more mixed story: third graders outperformed the state in ELA and math, at 51% and 54%, while eighth-grade math was 20%, against 36% statewide and 37% in the district. Nearby-school all-grade comparisons are descriptive because those schools do not all serve the same grades.

Math has improved recently, rising about 6 points from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026, but the all-grade result remains below the state; ELA fell about 5 points and science about 1 point between 2022–2023 and 2025–2026. SchoolDigger rates Telesis at the 53rd statewide percentile and 3 stars, down from the 63rd percentile in 2022–2023. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 23.8, close to the nearby average of 23.0. The school reported 82% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, compared with a 62% average among nearby schools reporting that measure. SchoolDigger’s rankings of how well the school serves student groups differed notably: English Language Learner Students ranked at the 21st percentile in 2023–2024, versus 54th overall, while Homeless Students ranked at the 85th percentile in 2025–2026, versus 53rd overall.
