Summary

Annie R. Mitchell is a 789-student K–6 elementary school in Visalia, California, in Visalia Unified. The key takeaway is that its 2025–2026 results were below the state in all three tested subjects, with the largest state gap in English language arts (ELA).

Compared with nearby same-district K–6 schools, the picture is stronger: Mitchell scored above the eight-school average in ELA, math and science, and ranked second of nine schools in math. Math is its strongest relative subject: 32% proficiency was about 1 point above the district, though 7 points below the state; it was also 6 points above the nearby-school average. ELA is the clearest weakness: 40% was 7 points below the district and 9 below the state, although 4 points above the nearby-school average. Science was 29%, 2 points below the district and 7 below the state, but 4 points above the peer average. Grade results vary: third-grade math was 41%, the highest among the nine K–6 schools, while fifth-grade math was 22%.

Mitchell’s results have not kept pace with state improvement: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, its scores declined slightly in all three subjects while state scores rose, widening the state gaps by 4 points in ELA, 5 in math and 7 in science. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 43rd percentile with 2 stars in 2025–2026, down 10 percentile points from 2023–2024, though it remained among the higher-ranked nearby schools. Its student-teacher ratio was 23.9 in 2024–2025, the highest among nearby schools with reported figures. The school’s separately reported measure was 68% free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the lowest among nearby same-district schools with the same measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings also show a notable contrast in how well the school serves different groups: English Language Learner Students ranked at the 83rd percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school’s overall 53rd percentile; Special Education Students ranked at the 28th percentile in 2025–2026, down from the 56th percentile in each of the prior two years.

Open Quote The principal doesn’t care for the students only the ones she wants (discriminates) and doesn’t treat them equally. Second the staff there don’t have morals like the the ones that work in the yard they yell at the kids with foul language but it’s ok for them to do it to get their attention which is not ok not a good school at all. That’s why I made a change. Close Quote
