Summary
Skyline Elementary is a 410-student K–6 school in Solana Beach, part of the Solana Beach Elementary district. In 2025–26, its proficiency rates were 77% in English Language Arts (ELA), 71% in math, and 67% in science. Those results are well above California averages, but below district results in all three subjects—most notably in math.
Compared with nearby schools, Skyline is slightly above the available peer average in ELA and science, but below it in math: the averages were 76% in ELA, 63% in science, and 73% in math. Its clearest grade-level strength is third-grade math, at 84%, just above the district’s 83%; fifth-grade math is the main concern, at 64%, 14 points below the district. Sixth-grade ELA was a bright spot at 83%, just 2 points below the district. Attendance is strong: chronic absenteeism was 3%, matching the district and well below the state’s 18%.
Results have slipped since 2022–23: ELA fell 5 points, math 6 points, and science 3 points, while the state improved in each subject; Skyline’s lead over the state narrowed by 8 to 9 points across subjects, and its gaps behind the district widened. SchoolDigger gives Skyline 5 stars and ranks it 415th of 5,804 California schools, at the 93rd percentile; its percentile was 97 in 2022–23. The student–teacher ratio was 24.1:1 in 2024–25, higher than all but one nearby school. In that year, 18% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby-school average of 17%. One subgroup result stands out: SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well Skyline serves Hispanic students was at the 76th percentile in 2025–26, down 16 points from 2023–24 and 17 points below the school’s overall percentile.
