Summary:
ZIP code 92040 has 12 schools—eight elementary, two middle and two high—serving students from elementary through high school. Nine schools have 2025–26 test results; the unweighted school averages were 46% in ELA, 35% in math and 36% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. The most important finding is the wide divide between schools: the top-to-bottom score range is about 35 to 43 percentage points, depending on the subject.
Riverview Elementary leads the 2025–26 group, with 67% ELA, 59% math and 52% science—about 18, 21 and 16 points above state results. It also exceeds the other eight schools’ average by 24 points in ELA, 28 in math and 18 in science. At the low end, Lindo Park Elementary has the lowest ELA and math results, 27% and 17%, while Lemon Crest Elementary has the lowest science result, 17%; those results are about 19 to 23 points below the state, depending on the subject. River Valley Charter was a standout in 2024–25, leading the listed schools in all three subjects, but has no 2025–26 scores.
Across the same nine schools, average math proficiency rose from 33% to 35% between 2024–25 and 2025–26, while ELA was nearly unchanged at 46% and science rose from 33% to 36%. DREAM Academy had a notable math gain, from 31% to 46%; its SchoolDigger statewide percentile ranking fell from 88 in 2023–24 to 54 in 2024–25, then edged up to 57 in 2025–26. Context measures vary too: the 2024–25 free/reduced lunch eligible measure was 25% at Riverview and 73% at Lindo Park, while student-teacher ratios were 23.4 at Riverview and 23.2 at Lakeview Elementary. These figures offer useful context, but do not explain school results.
