Summary:
ZIP code 91789 has 11 schools—seven elementary, two middle and two high schools—served by Walnut Valley Unified and Rowland Unified. Across the 10 schools with reported 2025–26 results, the unweighted school averages were above state results by 22 percentage points in ELA, 27 in math and 24 in science. But school results vary considerably: the ranges from highest to lowest were 23 points in ELA, 36 in math and 32 in science. The most important takeaway is that strong area averages do not mean every school has similar results.
Leonard G. Westhoff Elementary leads the five K–5 schools in all three subjects, with 81% proficiency in ELA, 81% in math and 71% in science; Vejar Elementary is lowest among them, at 58%, 59% and 53%, respectively. At the middle-school level, South Pointe Middle leads Suzanne Middle by 5 points in ELA, 15 in math and 10 in science; grade-level results show its math advantage across grades 6–8. Among the K–8 schools, Stanley G. Oswalt Academy is ahead of Ybarra Academy for the Arts and Technology by 9 points in ELA, 11 in math and 16 in science. SchoolDigger places Westhoff and South Pointe at the 97th statewide percentile in their school categories.
Recent results show a mixed picture: the school-average ELA result was essentially unchanged from 2024–25 to 2025–26, math dipped slightly, and science rose from 57% to 60%. Westhoff’s SchoolDigger ranking rose from the 94th to the 97th percentile, while Vejar’s fell from the 87th to the 79th. As context—not an explanation for results—Westhoff had 20% of students eligible for free/reduced lunch in 2024–25, compared with 32% at Vejar. Walnut High’s 11th-grade ELA result was 80%, while its math result was 62%, below its district’s 65%; its graduation rate was 98%. Ron Hockwalt Academies (Continuation) reported a 71% graduation rate and 21% dropout rate, and chronic absenteeism of 48%, compared with 6% districtwide. Hockwalt’s state-suppressed test scores are unknown and cannot be compared.
