Paloma Valley High

Q: Is Paloma Valley High a good high school?

Paloma Valley High is in the 59th percentile (Solid) of California’s regular public and charter high schools. Its Scope Score is 59 of 100: it places the school among them; it isn’t a grade. In 2024–25, 97% of the class graduated in four years (520 of 537); across California, 89%. The Scope Score combines 7 dimensions for high schools: graduation rate, exceeded standard, college/career readiness, met or exceeded the standard, 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.

Q: How does Paloma Valley High rank in California?

Paloma Valley High is in the 59th percentile of 1,500 California comprehensive high schools (Solid, 2025). Paloma Valley High ranks #610 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.

Q: What do attendance and suspension records show for Paloma Valley High?

CDE chronic absence 2024–25: 22.7% of eligible students missed 10% or more of the days they were expected to attend; 587 chronically absent of 2,582 eligible students. CDE suspension 2024–25: 2.7%; 74 unduplicated suspended students of 2,692 cumulative enrollment. Separately, SchoolScope's adjusted chronic-absence scoring input is 22.9%. SchoolScope's adjusted suspension scoring input is 2.7%. These are model inputs, not CDE's reported rates. These figures cannot establish safety or everyday experience. How the Scope Score is built.

Q: What AP courses are offered at Paloma Valley High?

Paloma Valley High had own-school AP authorizations for 18 of the 40 subjects in the College Board's 2025–26 AP program: Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Computer Science A, Computer Science Principles, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Environmental Science, European History, French Language and Culture, Human Geography, Macroeconomics, Physics 1, Spanish Language and Culture, Statistics, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History, World History: Modern. The audit records authorization, not whether a section ran that year or how students performed on AP exams. Data source: College Board AP Course Audit, analyzed by SchoolScope.

Q: How many students from Paloma Valley High go to UC?

In fall 2025, 41 Paloma Valley High graduates enrolled at University of California campuses, universitywide. That figure can't be split into a per-campus sum — students apply to several UC campuses at once, so campus-level counts don't add up to the universitywide total. UC is one destination among many: this says nothing about graduates who chose a CSU, a private college, a community college, or work, and it is a count, not a rate or a ranking. Data source: University of California Office of the President (UC Information Center), fall 2025 admissions cycle.

Asian and Filipino students and English learners: fewer than 30 tested here. No published rate here for American Indian or Alaska Native, Pacific Islander, homeless and military-family students and foster youth.

For the same grades, California's rate was 57% and 30% met or exceeded, 27% and 14% exceeded. 538 students were tested in English and 547 in math (CDE CAASPP 2024–25; California's rate combines CDE's statewide grade rows, weighted by students tested, our calculation).

How does Paloma Valley High rank in California?

Paloma Valley High is in the 59th percentile of 1,500 California comprehensive high schools (Solid, 2025). Paloma Valley High ranks #610 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 Paloma Valley High?

CDE chronic absence 2024–25: 22.7% of eligible students missed 10% or more of the days they were expected to attend; 587 chronically absent of 2,582 eligible students. CDE suspension 2024–25: 2.7%; 74 unduplicated suspended students of 2,692 cumulative enrollment. Separately, SchoolScope's adjusted chronic-absence scoring input is 22.9%. SchoolScope's adjusted suspension scoring input is 2.7%. 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 Paloma Valley High compare to other schools in Menifee?

Paloma Valley High is in the 59th percentile (Solid) of California’s regular public and charter high 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 2,487 students. Use the schools in Menifee page or the map view to compare nearby high schools.

What do reported student-group results show at Paloma Valley High?

What AP courses are offered at Paloma Valley High?

Paloma Valley High had own-school AP authorizations for 18 of the 40 subjects in the College Board's 2025–26 AP program: Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Computer Science A, Computer Science Principles, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, Environmental Science, European History, French Language and Culture, Human Geography, Macroeconomics, Physics 1, Spanish Language and Culture, Statistics, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History, World History: Modern. The audit records authorization, not whether a section ran that year or how students performed on AP exams. Data source: College Board AP Course Audit, analyzed by SchoolScope.

How many students from Paloma Valley High go to UC?

In fall 2025, 41 Paloma Valley High graduates enrolled at University of California campuses, universitywide. That figure can't be split into a per-campus sum — students apply to several UC campuses at once, so campus-level counts don't add up to the universitywide total. UC is one destination among many: this says nothing about graduates who chose a CSU, a private college, a community college, or work, and it is a count, not a rate or a ranking. Data source: University of California Office of the President (UC Information Center), fall 2025 admissions cycle.

In 2025 the pathway accepts two qualifying AP exams, two qualifying AP courses, or a combination of one of each in different subjects.

These are retrospective calculations using earlier test results and current school levels and comparison classes. Each year's rank and percentile use that year's measured school group. They do not form a trend across different score models.

The legacy high-school model uses 2024–25 graduation records. Its readiness input uses the 2025 AP pathway share among Prepared students when available; otherwise it uses 2024–25 A-G completion. A reported zero remains zero. These inputs do not describe graduation or readiness in the earlier assessment years. The newer 2025 model instead uses CDE's overall Prepared rate.

Historical ELPAC inputs are absent from these calculations. Missing factor weights are redistributed proportionally among available factors. Adjusted climate values are SchoolScope scoring inputs, distinct from the state’s reported rates.

CDE reported all-students (TA) school rates for 2024 and 2025; the change is 2025 minus 2024 in percentage points.

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.
