Summary:
Zip code 95815 has 10 schools: five elementary schools, one middle school, one high school and three alternative schools, offering options from elementary through high school. Among the nine schools with 2024–2025 scores, average proficiency was 36% in ELA, 26% in math and 23% in science—below state results of 49%, 37% and 33%. The central takeaway is that none of the seven schools with 2025–2026 scores matched the state result in any subject, even though results vary widely from school to school.
Valley View Charter Prep was the standout in 2024–2025, leading with 68% ELA, 60% math and 59% science; it was ahead of the next school by 19, 27 and 17 percentage points, respectively. At the other end, Martin Luther King Junior Technology Academy had the lowest results in all three subjects that year, trailing the state by 33 points in ELA, 31 in math and 27 in science. In 2025–2026, Las Palmas Elementary led ELA and math at 38% and 31%, while Capital College & Career Academy led science at 25%; those leaders were still 11, 7 and 11 points below the state, respectively. Woodlake Elementary had the lowest math and science results that year.
Across the six schools with scores in both years, average ELA fell 3 points and math fell 1 point, while science rose 1 point; state results rose in all three subjects, so the group fell farther behind in each. Individual results differed: Las Palmas improved in ELA and science, while Woodlake declined in all three. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for Las Palmas rose from 33 in 2023–2024 to 38 in 2025–2026, while D. W. Babcock Elementary fell from 23 to 10. As context, the reported measure was free/reduced lunch eligible for school year 2024–2025: it ranged from 30% at Valley View to 97% at Martin Luther King Junior Technology Academy, a difference that describes school contexts but does not explain test results.
