iLead Agua Dulce scores 26 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 13th percentile of 5,744 California elementary schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

Most rating sites would stop at “18% proficient” and call it done. iLead Agua Dulce deserves a closer read. The school sits in Agua Dulce, where one in three students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

Test scores are one lens, and at this school they're a rough one right now. The sections below show the fuller picture — including the parts that are working.

As a charter, iLead Agua Dulce enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.

How does iLead Agua Dulce rank in California?
iLead Agua Dulce ranks #4,988 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 13th percentile.
