Most rating sites would stop at “53% proficient” and call it done. Millville deserves a closer read. The school sits in Millville, where two in five students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

What are Millville Elementary's CAASPP test scores?

How does Millville Elementary rank in California?

This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), grade-level growth (Grade 3 to grade 5 growth), 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.
