of 5,817 California Elementary Schools

Better than 97% of California elementary schools

Summary

Canyon View Elementary serves 764 students in grades K–6 in Irvine, California. Its 2025–26 proficiency rates were 81% in English language arts (ELA), 81% in math and 72% in science. Most importantly, Canyon View outperformed Irvine Unified, California and the nearby-school average in all three subjects.

Compared with nearby schools, Canyon View’s largest advantage was in science: its 72% proficiency rate was 9 percentage points above the group average, compared with advantages of 8 points in ELA and 7 in math. It exceeded seven nearby schools in ELA and math and eight in science. Math was its strongest subject against the district and state: its rate was 10 points above the district and 42 points above California. Science was its least advantaged subject compared with the state, though Canyon View still led by 36 points. Fifth-grade math is a relative soft spot: 72% proficiency was 9 points below Canyon View’s all-grades rate, although it remained 7 points above the district and 35 points above the state. Among nearby schools with fifth-grade results, five scored higher and five lower.

Results have eased from their 2022–23 highs: by 2025–26, ELA was down 2 points, math 3 and science 3. But all three improved from 2024–25, and the gaps over California narrowed by 5 points in ELA, 7 in math and 9 in science as state results rose. SchoolDigger ranked Canyon View 156th of 5,804 California schools, at the 97th percentile with five stars. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 28.8, above the nearby average of 27.8; 12% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, compared with a nearby average of 27%. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well it serves Asian students placed it at the 71st percentile in 2025–26, 26 points below its overall percentile; that difference was similar in the two prior reported years.
