Summary:
ZIP code 92118 has four public schools in Coronado Unified: two elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, with 2,757 students in all. The schools’ 2025–26 all-grades averages were 74% in English language arts (ELA), 64% in math and 61% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38% and 36%. Because grade spans differ, these are broad summaries rather than grade-matched comparisons. The most important finding is that every school’s all-grades result in each subject was above the corresponding state figure.
Coronado High led ELA at 80%, about 3 percentage points ahead of the next school, while Silver Strand Elementary led math at 73% and science at 70%—about 6 points ahead of the next school in each subject. Coronado Village Elementary was second in math at 67%. Coronado Middle was lowest in all three subjects, at 68% in ELA, 56% in math and 55% in science, yet its results remained 19, 17 and 19 points above state figures, respectively. One notable exception to Coronado High’s strong overall profile is science: its 12th-grade result was 23%, below the state’s 33%, while its 11th-grade result was 66%, above the state’s 38%.
