Summary:
ZIP code 92124 has eight schools serving elementary through high school: five elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school, enrolling 4,823 students altogether. The schools’ average 2025–2026 proficiency was 59% in ELA, 53% in math and 47% in science, all above state figures; the clearest takeaway is that results vary widely, especially in math.
Tierrasanta Elementary led the area in all three subjects, with 70% proficiency in ELA, 73% in math and 64% in science—21, 35 and 28 percentage points above state figures. At the other end, Miller Elementary had the lowest ELA result, 47%, while Farb Middle had the lowest math and science results, 31% and 34%. Farb was 7 points below the state in math and 2 below in science. Among middle schools serving the same grades, De Portola Middle outperformed Farb by 21 points in ELA, 30 in math and 19 in science. Results are not uniformly low at Miller: its math and science scores were slightly above state figures.
Recent changes were mixed: the area’s average ELA result fell about 2 points from the prior year, while math rose about 2 and science about 1. Hancock Elementary made gains in all three subjects—about 10 points in ELA, 15 in math and 11 in science—while Miller declined in each. SchoolDigger ranked Tierrasanta in the statewide 90th percentile in 2025–2026; Hancock rose from the 65th to the 71st percentile over three years, while Miller fell from the 73rd to the 56th. School context measures add useful perspective but do not explain results: for 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible students made up 45% at De Portola and 68% at Farb, while their student-teacher ratios were 23.7 and 15.4, respectively. Canyon Hills High also presents a mixed picture: its all-grades proficiency was below state figures, but its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 98%, compared with 88% statewide.
