California’s growth results and student groups
State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25
California's own growth model places it near the 11th percentile of middle schools.
Context — never part of the Scope Score
California runs its own growth model — it follows individual children in grades 4 through 8 and compares each one against a prediction from their own prior scores. On that measure this school sits well below the middle of California middle schools in reading and math together. We show it; we don't score it.
— pts vs expected is scale-score points above or below what California's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores. It is not a percentage and not a percent of anything. A typical California middle school lands at −1 in reading, and the middle half of them fall between −8 and +6 — the spread is wide, so read the rank, not the sign. CDE blends two consecutive years into each published figure, so adjacent years share input data and no year-over-year trend can honestly be drawn from them. It covers grades 4-8 only, and it is not part of the Scope Score — we assessed it and left it out: it tracks school demographics roughly three times as strongly as our own growth measure does, and one published year is not enough to test how stable it is.

California follows these children individually and predicts each one's score from their own prior year. Each row is read against the same group at a typical California middle school — not against zero, and not against this school's all-students figure, because the state's expectation already differs by group.

— 1 more group is reported here with between 11 and 29 students. We hold those back on purpose: at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own, and a quarter of such groups land past the state's top or bottom cut point by chance alone. They are listed with their student counts in the data appendix. — A group not listed at all had fewer than 11 students with a growth score, so California published nothing for it here. That is a privacy protection, not a judgment about those students. — Context only. None of this enters the Scope Score.

The road from this school ends at La Puente High, which sent 15 graduates to UC campuses last fall and teaches 13 AP subjects. Those numbers describe past cohorts — a child starting here today would reach La Puente High around 2031, and 6 years is a long time for a school to hold still, and by the state's 2023 count 68% of La Puente High's graduates enrolled in college somewhere, UC or not.

Plan your next step
What should I do next?
Worth a school visit
Ask what the school is working on next. Strong numbers tell you where a school is, not where it's going.
- Ask how the school follows up when a student starts missing days — chronic absence often starts outside the classroom, not inside it.
- Ask what typically leads to a suspension, and what happens before it gets there.
- Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
- Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
- Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
- Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Sierra Vista Middle a good middle school?
Sierra Vista Middle has a Scope Score of 28 out of 100, placing it in the 31st percentile of California middle schools and ranked #1,494 statewide. 12.7% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 4.5 percentage points below the California average of 17.2%. The Scope Score weights 6 dimensions for middle schools: exceeded standard (42%), met or exceeded (proficient) (23%), grade 6-to-8 growth (20%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Sierra Vista Middle's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 30.9% of students at Sierra Vista Middle met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 12.7% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 18.2% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 12.7% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 490 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Sierra Vista Middle rank in California?
Sierra Vista Middle ranks #1,494 among California middle schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 31st percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), grade-level growth (Grade 6 to grade 8 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.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Sierra Vista Middle?
32.2% of students at Sierra Vista Middle are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), compared to the California average of 18.1%. The suspension rate is 9.5%. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Sierra Vista Middle compare to other schools in La Puente?
Sierra Vista Middle scores 28/100 (31st percentile) among California middle schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 270 students. Use the schools in La Puente page or the map view to compare all middle schools nearby.
How does Sierra Vista Middle serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Sierra Vista Middle in La Puente, 34.4% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 45.0% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Sierra Vista Middle trails its district average for low-income students by 10.5 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (26.4% Math proficient); Hispanic students (35.0% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 32.5 percentage points for english learner students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 212 students tested. SchoolScope shows disaggregated test scores by demographic subgroup so you can see how a school performs for your child's specific group — not just the school-wide average. Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.

Whole scale-score points above or below what CDE's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores — not a percentage, not a percentile. Statewide a typical school lands near +1 with a spread of about 13 points either side, so read a figure against its group's own typical value, not against zero. Muted rows have fewer than 30 students with a growth score — published by CDE, held back from the narrative sections above because at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own. “Not categorised” is CDE assigning no band — English Only, Recently Reclassified, and English Learners Only receive a value and no band, for every school in the state. It is not a missing number. Long-Term English Learner counts cover grades 6-8 only (CDE), so that row is not comparable to the All Students row. Most figures blend two consecutive years, so adjacent published years share input data and no trend line can honestly be drawn across them. A group absent from this table had fewer than 11 students with a growth score and was never published. Grades 4-8 only. None of this enters the Scope Score — it is more strongly correlated with school demographics than our own growth measure, and one published year is not enough to test its reliability.
