Summary
Township Elementary is a K–5 school in Simi Valley, California, serving 521 students in Simi Valley Unified. Its latest proficiency results were above both the state and district in English language arts (ELA), math, and science—the clearest overall strength for families to note.
Township’s 2025–26 results were 53% in ELA, 46% in math, and 45% in science, placing it fourth among 10 nearby schools with comparable results in every subject. Those scores were also above nearby-school averages of 48%, 40%, and 38%, respectively; they exceeded state results by 4, 8, and 9 percentage points, and district results by 3, 9, and 6 points. Within the school, fifth-grade ELA stands out at 62%, 13 points above the state, while fourth-grade ELA is a relative soft spot at 44%—2 points below both the state and district. Attendance is another improvement: chronic absenteeism fell to 13% in 2025–26, below the district’s 16% and state’s 18%. Locally, only Vista Elementary and Big Springs Elementary had lower rates.
Over time, science proficiency rose 24 percentage points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while ELA rose 6 and math rose 1. The latest year brought declines in all three subjects—1 point in ELA, 6 in math, and 4 in science—though Township remained above state and district results. SchoolDigger placed the school in the 67th statewide percentile with 3 stars, third among nearby schools with current rankings; its percentile was down 6 points from the prior year. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 22.6, compared with a nearby-school average of 21.8. Township reported 43% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, below the nearby-school average of 50%; California is flagged as a statewide-free-meals state, but Township’s figure is its own reported measure. One notable group result is SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for White Students: the 42nd percentile, 25 points below Township’s overall percentile, indicating a lower relative ranking in how well the school serves this group.
