Summary

Stone Creek Elementary is a K–6 school in Irvine, serving 506 students in Irvine Unified. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were 82% in English language arts (ELA), 78% in math, and 74% in science—each well above district and California results. The clearest overall finding is its strong statewide standing: SchoolDigger ranked the school 193rd of 5,804 California schools, in the 97th percentile with five stars.

Math is Stone Creek’s clearest strength among nearby schools: its 78% proficiency rate was the highest among the nearby Irvine Unified schools, and it exceeded the district by 7 percentage points and California by 39. ELA was 82%, second to Eastshore Elementary, while science was 74%, third behind Eastshore and Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy. Even in science, Stone Creek was 9 points above the district and 38 above the state. Fourth grade was the school’s relative low point: ELA proficiency was 79% and math was 74%, still 8 and 3 points above district results, respectively.

Scores have recently rebounded, though they remain slightly below their 2022–23 levels: since 2024–25, ELA rose 6 points, math 1 point, and science 5 points. SchoolDigger’s rank improved from 418th in 2024–25 to 193rd in 2025–26, but it has varied across years. The school’s 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 29.7, among the higher ratios in the nearby group. Its free/reduced lunch eligible share was 18% in 2024–25, close to Eastshore’s 17.3%. SchoolDigger’s group rankings also show recent gains: for Multi-racial Students, the school ranked in the 65th percentile, up from the 33rd percentile the year before, but below its overall 97th percentile; for Asian Students, it ranked in the 80th percentile, up from the 61st percentile in prior years. These rankings describe how well the school serves each group compared with the same group at other California schools.
