Summary

Solano Widenmann Leadership Academy is a 615-student K–8 school in Vallejo, part of Vallejo City Unified. In 2025–2026, 23% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 12% in math, and 12% in science. The most important finding for families is that proficiency was below both state and district results in all three subjects: the school trailed state rates by 27 points in ELA, 27 in math, and 24 in science.

ELA is the school’s strongest result relative to nearby schools, but performance was below nearby averages in every subject. Among nine nearby schools with results, averages were 35% in ELA, 28% in math, and 24% in science, putting Solano Widenmann 13, 16, and 13 points lower, respectively. It ranked fourth-lowest of ten schools in ELA and third-lowest in math and science. Results also varied by grade: seventh grade was strongest, with 32% proficient in ELA, above the district’s 28%; fifth-grade results were notably weaker, at 12% in ELA and 7% in math. Its fifth-grade ELA was below every nearby school reporting that grade, and its fifth-grade math was the lowest.

Scores have risen since 2022–2023, though the gains have not consistently narrowed the state gap: ELA increased from 21% to 23%, math from 8% to 12%, and science from 8% to 12%. Meanwhile, SchoolDigger’s overall ranking declined from the 8th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 3rd in 2025–2026, when the school received 0 stars. Its 20.1 students per teacher in 2024–2025 was the lowest reported ratio among nearby schools. In that year, 83% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; California is identified in the data as a statewide-free-meals state, so this eligibility figure is not a measure of who receives meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves African American students fell from the 37th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 6th in 2025–2026, a 31-point drop. Its ranking for how well it serves Special Education Students was higher than its overall ranking in 2025–2026: the 23rd percentile versus the 3rd.
