Summary:
ZIP code 92131 has six schools—four elementary, one middle and one high—serving families in the Scripps Ranch area, and all six exceed state all-grades proficiency rates in English language arts (ELA), math and science. Because all-grades results cover different grade spans, comparisons are most useful among the elementary schools. Across the six schools, the average math result is 41 percentage points above the state rate, compared with 32 points in ELA and 37 in science. The clearest area-wide advantage is math relative to the state.
Among elementary schools, the leaders differ by subject, while Miramar Ranch Elementary has the lowest all-grades results in all three. Scripps Elementary leads elementary ELA with 85%, 16 points above Miramar’s 69%; Dingeman Elementary leads math with 87%, 12 points above Miramar’s 75%; and Jerabek Elementary leads science with 81%, 21 points above Miramar’s 61%. Miramar still exceeds state rates in each subject, but its margins are smaller than its peers’. Grade-level results reinforce these patterns: Dingeman leads math in grades 3–5, while Jerabek leads grade 3 ELA and Scripps Elementary leads grades 4 and 5 ELA.
Recent results show mixed movement: the six-school average fell 2 points in ELA from 2024–25 to 2025–26, was nearly flat in math and rose 3 points in science. Five schools’ ELA results declined; Miramar had the largest drop, 8 points, and was the only school whose science result fell. SchoolDigger ranks Scripps Ranch High 39th of 2,137 California schools, at the 98th percentile; Scripps Elementary and Dingeman are at the 99th percentile, and Jerabek at the 98th. As context, all six report free/reduced lunch eligible (FRL) for 2024–25: rates range from 15% at Scripps Elementary to 23% at Miramar, but the figures do not form a simple ranking of school results.
