Summary:

The 92079 school list contains one school, Baypoint Preparatory Academy – San Diego, serving grades K–8 with 162 students. Because there is only one school, families cannot compare it with other schools in this list; the available results compare the school with state averages and across its own grades and years. The most important finding is that mathematics has shifted from above the state level to well below it: the school went from 43% proficient compared with 37% statewide in 2024–2025 to 30% compared with 38% in 2025–2026.

The school’s strongest all-grades results are in ELA and science, while mathematics is its clearest weakness: in 2025–2026, ELA was 53% compared with 49% statewide, and science was 42% compared with 36%; math was 30% compared with 38%. Grade-level results show important differences for families to consider: eighth-grade ELA was 77% compared with 49% statewide, a 27-point advantage, while sixth-grade math was 10% compared with 37%, a 28-point deficit. As the only school in the list, Baypoint is technically both the highest- and lowest-scoring school here, but that does not show how it compares with other nearby schools.

Results declined in all three subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, and the school’s leads in ELA and science narrowed. ELA fell 5 points, reducing its state advantage from 10 points to 4; science fell 1 point, and its advantage narrowed from 11 points to 6. Math fell 13 points as the state result rose 1 point, shifting the school from a 5-point lead to a 9-point deficit. SchoolDigger’s ranking also moved down, from the 74th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 64th in 2024–2025 and 50th in 2025–2026. Chronic absenteeism was 22% at the school versus 18% statewide in 2025–2026. Context figures include a 17.9 student-teacher ratio in 2024–2025 and 58% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these describe the school but do not explain its results.
