Summary:
Schools in 91901 include six schools—five elementary schools and one middle school—with grade spans from kindergarten-only at Creekside Early Learning Center to K–8 at The Heights Charter and Mountain View Learning Academy. Four schools have 2025–26 schoolwide test results; their unweighted average was 45% in ELA, 44% in math and 37% in science, compared with state averages of 49%, 38% and 36%. Results vary most sharply in science: the gap between the highest- and lowest-scoring schools was 31 percentage points, the clearest difference for families to weigh.
Shadow Hills Elementary was the 2025–26 standout, leading the four schools in all three subjects: 53% in ELA, 53% in math and 53% in science. It was 4 points above the state in ELA, 15 points above in math and 17 points above in science. At the other end, Boulder Oaks Elementary had the lowest science result, 22%, or 14 points below the state. Joan MacQueen Middle had the lowest ELA and math scores among the four, though its math result was only 2 points below the state; it exceeded the state in seventh-grade math. In the earlier 2024–25 results, The Heights led ELA and science, while Shadow Hills led math.
Trends differ by subject: among the four schools with results in both years, average ELA fell from 48% to 45%, while math and science averages were effectively unchanged at 44% and 37%, respectively. The ELA gap below the state widened from 1 to 4 points; the group’s math and science leads narrowed from 7 to 6 points and from 4 to 1 point. Boulder Oaks’ science score fell 19 points, while Shadow Hills’ rose 11. SchoolDigger ranked Shadow Hills at the 73rd percentile in 2025–26, compared with Joan MacQueen at the 52nd and Boulder Oaks at the 49th; its 2024–25 rankings put The Heights at the 80th percentile and Shadow Hills at the 79th. The Heights’ latest results are from 2024–25, Creekside has no scores listed, and schools serve different grades; results at Mountain View, with 64 students, warrant particular caution.
