Schools maintain a closed campus policy. For students’ safety, visitors may enter a campus only with the school’s official permission; this drawing implies no permission to enter.
Only 24 students were tested here in grades 4 and 5 in spring 2026, so one student’s result moves each rate by about 4 points.

Lake County International Charter scores higher than 88 in 100 of California’s 5,726 scored public elementary schools: 88th percentile, Strong, spring 2026. Evidence ↓
In 2025–26, 1 in 100 students missed 10% or more of school days, against 19 in 100 at the average Middletown Unified elementary school. 0 of 82 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26, against 1.6% at the average California elementary school. Evidence ↓
In English, below what the state expected; in math, about as expected. In 2025, students here in grades 4 and 5 scored −17 points against the state’s expected score in English, which the state calls Moderate. In math, they scored +4 points, which it calls Average.

Academic achievement
79% of the 24 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English (reading and writing); 75% did in math.
State tests (CAASPP), spring 2026
In grades 4 and 5, spring 2026, 79% of the 24 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English, against 47% across California. In math, 75% did, against 40% across California. Fewer than 30 students tested, so one year can swing a lot; ask how results looked in other years.

California is CDE’s statewide math row for each grade, counting every student tested there; the comparisons in the chapters combine these rows for their grades, weighted by students tested (our calculation).
A grade the school doesn't teach has no row. “Suppressed” marks a result CDE blanks because fewer than 11 students tested (CDE’s reporting rule); “none tested” marks a grade CDE lists with no students tested; “not on file” marks a result missing from the records we hold. None of them means zero.

School pattern · grades 4 and 5 · spring 2026 · What patterns mean
In English, below what the state expected; in math, about as expected. California sets an expected score for each student from that student’s own score the year before. In 2025, students here in grades 4 and 5 scored −17 points against that expected score in English, which the state calls Moderate. In math, they scored +4 points, which it calls Average.
Grades 4 and 5 · 2025 · 37 students with scores in both years
Points above or below what the state expected from the same students’ earlier scores.
−17 pts
The state calls it Moderate, the second of its five growth levels.
+4 pts
The state calls it Average, the third of its five growth levels.

English and math results for the tested grades. These do not measure the experience in kindergarten or the early grades.
In grades 4 and 5, the share at the state’s top two levels in English was 79% in 2026. In math, it was 75% in 2026. Each year is a different group of students.

CDE withholds a year’s results when fewer than 11 students tested, as it did here in 2022.
California uses each student’s English and math scores from the year before to set an expected score, based on how students with similar earlier scores did across the state. Zero would mean students here scored as expected. In English they scored 17 points below that expected score, and in math 4 points above it.
The state sorts every school’s growth result into five growth levels, from Minimal to Exceptional.
Here, as at most schools, the state’s figure blends the two most recent years, so it moves more slowly than one year’s scores.

California law requires schools to screen kindergartners through second graders for reading difficulties every year, with some exceptions. You get notice at least 15 days before, results within 45 days, and can opt out in writing.
Kindergartners can’t be screened before the 91st school day; transitional kindergarten isn’t covered.
If screening shows your child may be at risk for reading difficulties, the school must provide supports. That result isn’t a diagnosis, and screening can’t be used to delay a special-education evaluation.
Ask how many K–2 students screening found at risk last year, and how many got extra reading help.

Life at school
1 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26.
State attendance and suspension records, 2025–26
That means they missed 10% or more of school days. At the average Middletown Unified elementary school, 19 in 100 were. 0 of 82 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26, against 1.6% at the average California elementary school.

students were suspended at least once. Average California elementary school 1.6%.
Ask: When a child starts missing school, who calls the family, and how soon?
Ask current families how the school keeps them informed, and what happened when their child needed help. Ask staff how long teachers tend to stay.

Index is where the school's value sits among the California elementary schools we score, from 0 to 100, where 50 is their average; it is not a percentile. School values are from 2025–26. Chronic absence and suspension are CDE's all-students school rates; the score uses an adjusted version of each that pulls small schools toward the average, so their index can sit nearer 50 than the rate suggests. The weights above add to 75%: the remaining 25%, for measures with no value here, is shared out among the measures above.

Current 2025–26 grade results are under Academic achievement, in Results for each grade. “Students with scores” counts the students tested in that grade, subject and year. A missing result is not zero, and each year’s row is a different group of children.

CDE reports scale-score points against the state’s expected score — 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 categorized” means this imported CDE row has a growth value without a performance category. At least one estimate here is a CDE weighted estimate; that describes how CDE combines years, 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; here that is grades 4 and 5. SchoolScope does not use these CDE figures in its Scope Score.
