Summary:
Zip code 91708 in Chino, California, is served by two K-8 schools, Cal Aero Preserve Academy and Legacy Academy, both part of the Chino Valley Unified district, which overall ranks above the state average.
Among these two schools, Cal Aero Preserve Academy stands out as the higher-performing option. It consistently earns test scores above both district and state averages in English, math, and science, and it has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking over the past three years. In contrast, Legacy Academy trails behind, with proficiency rates in math and science falling below district and state benchmarks. A major factor in this performance gap appears to be attendance; Cal Aero has a chronic absenteeism rate of just 10%, while Legacy's rate is more than double at 23.2%.
Both schools serve student populations with similar levels of economic need, but the differences in outcomes highlight the impact of school-specific practices. Parents may want to note Cal Aero's lower student-teacher ratio and its four-star rating compared to the district's three-star average. For families considering schools in this area, the data suggests a significant difference in academic environment and results between the two available options.
