Summary

Sycamore Elementary serves 359 students in grades K–5 in Simi Valley, California, as part of Simi Valley Unified. Its 2025–2026 results were mixed: English language arts (ELA) and math proficiency were below district and state levels, while science was well above both. Among nearby schools with reported results, Sycamore placed sixth of 10 in ELA and math and second of 10 in science. The clearest takeaway is that science is a strong relative subject, while ELA and math are the main areas of concern.

Science proficiency was 47%, compared with 36% statewide and 40% in the district; Sycamore ranked second among the 10 nearby schools with results. ELA proficiency was 43%, 6 percentage points below the state and 7 below the district, while math was 35%, 3 points below the state and 2 below the district. Both subjects placed Sycamore sixth of 10 nearby schools. Grade-level math results show a sharper contrast: fifth-grade proficiency was 20%, 16 points below both state and district results, while fourth-grade proficiency was 45%, above the state by 3 points and the district by 1. Chronic absenteeism was 14% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 16% and the state’s 18%.

Over four reported years, ELA and math changed little overall, while science rose from 36% in 2022–2023 to 47% in 2025–2026 after a dip in between. ELA and math results remain below where they stood relative to the state at the start of that period; science remains above the state. SchoolDigger placed Sycamore at the 53rd percentile statewide, with 3 stars—near the middle of ranked nearby schools. Its 21.1 student–teacher ratio was also around the middle of the local group. In 2024–2025, 45% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 55% average at the 10 other nearby schools; this is context, not an explanation for results. SchoolDigger’s 2022–2023 ranking placed English Language Learner Students at the 95th percentile for how well the school served that group, versus the school’s overall 58th percentile. In 2025–2026, the Hispanic Students percentile was 34, below the school’s overall 53rd.
