Summary:
Zip code 92307 in Apple Valley, California, is served by seven public schools spanning grades K-12, including five elementary schools, one high school, and one alternative K-12 school, all operating under the Apple Valley Unified district or the separate Academy for Academic Excellence District.
The standout school in the area is the Academy for Academic Excellence, which significantly outperforms the others in test scores, boasts a near-perfect graduation rate, and has very low student absenteeism. In contrast, the traditional schools in the Apple Valley Unified district, such as Granite Hills High and the elementary schools, face greater challenges, with academic proficiency rates generally below state averages and notably high rates of chronic student absenteeism.
Parents will find a clear performance gap between the school systems, with the alternative academy serving a student population with lower economic need. Among the traditional elementary schools, performance varies, with Sycamore Rocks Elementary showing relatively stronger results in English compared to Phoenix Academy, which has the lowest proficiency rates. Math scores are a particular area for improvement across all the traditional district schools.
