English+39ptsCDE level: Exceptional (5 of 5)
Math+15ptsCDE level: Accelerated (4 of 5)

What the number means. California predicts each student’s score from that student’s own English and math scores the year before, based on how students with similar scores did across the state. Zero would mean students here scored as predicted. In English they scored 39 points above that prediction, and in math 15 points above it.

The levels. CDE sorts every school’s result into five levels, from Minimal to Exceptional. The bar under each number shows where this school landed.

Two years at once. For most schools, this one included, CDE’s figure blends the two most recent years of growth, so it moves more slowly than a single year’s scores.

School pattern, spring 2025High CeilingThe average Exceeded rate across the reported grades and subjects is at least 50%.

An inferred path through a middle-school overlap points to Irvine High. UC records 90 enrollees from Irvine High for fall 2025. Its AP Course Audit lists 23 authorized AP subjects for 2025 - 2026. Those figures come from dated records — if a child starting here today later attended Irvine High, that would be around 2035, and 10 years is a long time for a school to hold still, and by the state's 2023 count 90% of Irvine High's graduates enrolled in college somewhere, UC or not.

Common questions

Is Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy a good elementary school?
Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy is in the 95th percentile (Strong) of California’s regular public and charter elementary schools. Its Scope Score is 72 of 100: it places the school among them; it isn’t a grade.

The Scope Score combines 6 dimensions for elementary schools: exceeded standard, met or exceeded the standard, grade 3-to-5 growth, chronic absenteeism, suspension rate, and ELPAC English Learner proficiency. See the current formula and weights. Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy's CAASPP test scores?
In spring 2025, 78% of students tested in grades 4 and 5 met or exceeded the English standard and 62% the math standard; 59% and 47% exceeded it. For the same grades, California's rate was 47% and 39% met or exceeded, 24% and 20% exceeded. 32 students were tested in English and 32 in math (CDE CAASPP 2024–25; California's rate combines CDE's statewide grade rows, weighted by students tested, our calculation).
How does Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy rank in California?
Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy is in the 95th percentile of 5,721 California comprehensive elementary schools (Strong, 2025). Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy ranks #270 by Scope Score in that comparison pool. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
What do attendance and suspension records show for Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy?
CDE chronic absence 2024–25: 0.0% of eligible students missed 10% or more of the days they were expected to attend; 0 chronically absent of 68 eligible students. CDE suspension 2024–25: 0.0%; 0 unduplicated suspended students of 77 cumulative enrollment. Separately, SchoolScope's adjusted chronic-absence scoring input is 5.7%. SchoolScope's adjusted suspension scoring input is 0.5%. These are model inputs, not CDE's reported rates. These figures cannot establish safety or everyday experience. How the Scope Score is built.
How does Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy compare to other schools in Irvine?
Irvine Unified School District Virtual Academy is in the 95th percentile (Strong) of California’s regular public and charter elementary schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same measures side by side: the share of students who met or exceeded the standard, the share who exceeded it, growth, chronic absence and suspensions. The school serves 58 students. Use the schools in Irvine page or the map view to compare nearby elementary schools.

The Absent and Susp columns are SchoolScope model-adjusted scoring inputs, rather than raw CDE-reported school rates.

Grade gap = this year's grade 3 vs grade 5 result, two different sets of students, not a trend for any one child — it is not the measurement the Scope Score's growth dimension uses. See §01 above and /methodology#verdicts for the school's actual scored (cohort) growth.
What we can't show
  • — The same-year grade contrast is unavailable in this record; it is separate from the two-year aggregate comparison used for scoring.
  • — No subgroup comparison could be shown for this school this year — either its group sizes fall under CDE's 15-student reporting floor, or district/state comparison data wasn't available for its groups.

CDE reports scale-score points versus its growth-model prediction — not a percentage or percentile. The table keeps the group records SchoolScope imported for this school, including rows below our narrative display threshold. Muted rows have fewer than 30 students with a valid growth score. SchoolScope uses that threshold for the shorter narrative view; the reported values stay visible here. “Not categorised” means this imported CDE row has a growth value without a performance category. CDE labels at least one imported estimate here WEIGHTED; that describes its aggregation method, not a year-over-year trend. A group absent from this table has no imported record shown here. Its absence alone does not establish its size or performance. CDE growth covers grades 4–8. SchoolScope does not use these CDE figures in its Scope Score.

Source notes. CDE reports scale-score points versus its prediction for matched students, never a percentage. Among SchoolScope's retained California elementary school records, the median ELA estimate is +2 and the middle half fall between −5 and +9 scale-score points — the spread is wide, so read its position among reported schools, not the sign. CDE's 2025 Dashboard weighted school estimate uses assessments from 2022–23, 2023–24, and 2024–25; adjacent reporting editions should not be read as independent annual changes. The CDE measure covers grades 4–8 and is not part of the Scope Score.

ShowHide how the California mean was selected

SchoolScope starts with its selected California finance records, not every NCES California district. For FY 2020–21, it calculates an unweighted mean of NCES F-33 current expense per pupil. District records contribute once, regardless of enrollment. The calculation keeps records with positive per-pupil current expense, enrollment over 100, CCD agency type 1, and a recorded district name; it excludes names ending in County Office of Education, Department of Education, or Superintendent of Schools. This is a SchoolScope calculation, not a state-published spending average.

SchoolScope groups district-level CDE SACS UserGL actuals from Fund 01, using operating objects 1000–5999 and excluding retiree benefits, food and community services, facilities acquisition, other outgo, and nonagency goals. These shares use that filtered total; they do not exactly break down CDE's official current expense per ADA above. The school-level ESSA figure uses a separate source.
