Summary:

ZIP code 93307 has 26 schools: 16 elementary, six middle and four high schools, including a continuation high school. Enrollment ranges from 13 students at Greenfield Community to 2,228 at Golden Valley High. Comparing the same grades gives parents a clearer picture: 11th-grade results vary widely among high schools, as do 8th-grade and 5th-grade results among middle and elementary schools. The biggest takeaway is that achievement differs substantially from school to school, even among schools serving the same grade.

Golden Valley High leads the high schools in 11th-grade ELA at 59%, about 2 points above the state result; Tierra Del Sol Continuation High is lowest at 10%. Golden Valley also leads high-school math at 20%, though that is 12 points below the state. Leon H. Ollivier Middle leads the middle schools in 8th-grade ELA, math and science: 60%, 31% and 39%, respectively. Its ELA and science results are 10 and 4 points above state results, while its math is 5 points below. Among elementary schools, Fairview Elementary leads 5th-grade ELA at 51%; Raffaello Palla Elementary leads math at 31%; and Crescent Elementary leads science at 35%. Dr. Martin Luther King Junior Elementary is lowest in all three 5th-grade subjects.

Recent movement is mixed: high-school all-grade science averages rose 5 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, compared with a 3-point state increase; elementary math averages fell 1 point as the state result rose 1 point. Individual schools also diverged: Crescent science rose 21 points, while ELA fell 6 points at Shirley Lane Elementary and 7 at Valle Verde Elementary. SchoolDigger’s ranking percentile for Crescent rose from 20 to 36 over three years, while McKee Middle fell from 50 to 41. Most schools report free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–2025; among those schools, figures range from 77% to 97%. These measures do not sort neatly with scores: for example, Greenfield Union elementary schools have similarly high reported rates, yet their all-grade ELA results range from 32% to 41%.
