California's 2025 Dashboard growth model: ELA −8 and math −15 scale-score pts vs expected.

Context — never part of the Scope Score

California's 2025 Dashboard weighted matched-student growth estimate reports ELA −8 pts vs expected and math −15 pts vs expected for this school. These are scale-score points relative to predictions from students' prior results. We show this separate measure; it is not part of the Scope Score.

— 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. CDE's 2025 Dashboard weighted school estimate uses assessments from 2022–23, 2023–24, and 2024–25; it is not two independent annual observations. It covers grades 4–8 only. SchoolScope shows it separately from the Scope Score: California follows matched students, while our scored cohort measure compares school-grade groups across years.

School staffing2024–25: about 26 enrolled students per teacher FTE · SchoolScope reporting-district average 21

2024–25: about 26 enrolled students per teacher FTE. CDE school-total enrollment divided by the school's reported teacher full-time equivalents in the NCES CCD 2024–25 final school staff file. SchoolScope rounds the result to a whole student per teacher; the CDE staffing year above dates separate teacher facts. The SchoolScope reporting-district average covers verified schools in our directory under this school's 2024–25 CDE reporting parent; school ratios are weighted by enrollment. The California figure, where shown, also averages available school ratios weighted by enrollment. This schoolwide staffing ratio is not class size.

Worth knowing

CDE Census Day counted 204 students here in 2024–25. This was below the 2024–25 median of 465 across 4,593 distinct schools in SchoolScope's administrative elementary directory category. The selected pool uses active comprehensive public and charter records with last-seen year 2025, verified CDE school totals and grades, and traditional or alternative-choice operations. It is not a statewide sample; category membership does not imply substantial enrollment in every grade or comparable grade distributions or programs.

Transitional kindergarten is offered here — confirmed by actual Census Day enrollment, not just the listed grade span.

On the state's science test (CAST), 24% met or exceeded the standard — science is tested in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school, and it never enters the Scope Score.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Valle Vista Elementary a good elementary school?
Valle Vista Elementary has a Scope Score of 24 out of 100, placing it in the 19th percentile of California comprehensive elementary schools and ranked #4,614 statewide. Across the available ELA and Math grade-subject results for grades 3–5 on the 2025 CAASPP, Valle Vista Elementary's average Standard Exceeded rate is 12.3%. Available ELA and Math grade-subject rates are averaged equally. That is 9.1 percentage points below the 21.4% equal-school average across scored California comprehensive elementary schools at this level. 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 Valle Vista Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
Across available ELA and Math grade-subject rates combined in CDE CAASPP 2025 (2024–25), Valle Vista Elementary's average Standard Met or Exceeded rate is 30.4%; its average Standard Exceeded rate is 12.3%. Available grade-subject rates are averaged equally. The 18.2 percentage-point difference is the average Standard Met-only share across those same rows. These are averages of result rows, not the share of distinct students at the school. 201 student-subject test results underpin the school's assessment record.
How does Valle Vista Elementary rank in California?
Valle Vista Elementary is in the 19th percentile of 5,721 California comprehensive elementary schools (Needs Support, 2025). Valle Vista Elementary ranks #4,614 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 Valle Vista Elementary?
CDE chronic absence 2024–25: 25.2% of eligible students missed 10% or more of the days they were expected to attend; 55 chronically absent of 218 eligible students. CDE suspension 2024–25: 0.0%; 0 unduplicated suspended students of 219 cumulative enrollment. Separately, SchoolScope's adjusted chronic-absence scoring input is 24.3%. SchoolScope's adjusted suspension scoring input is 0.2%. 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 Valle Vista Elementary compare to other schools in San Jose?
Valle Vista Elementary scores 24/100 (19th percentile) among California comprehensive elementary 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 204 students. Use the schools in San Jose page or the map view to compare nearby elementary schools.
What do reported student-group results show at Valle Vista Elementary?
At Valle Vista Elementary in San Jose, 29.8% of socioeconomically disadvantaged students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025 for reported grades 3, 4 and 5, compared to 23.5% district-wide for those same grades and 35.2% statewide for those same grades. Valle Vista Elementary's rate for socioeconomically disadvantaged students exceeds its district average by 6.2 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: socioeconomically disadvantaged students (23.6% met or exceeded the Math standard); Hispanic students (33.9% met or exceeded the ELA standard). Among the reported ELA and Math proficiency gaps supplied for this school, the largest is 7.3 percentage points: socioeconomically disadvantaged students trail the school-wide rate in ELA. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 72 ELA grade test records. 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.
What middle school does Valle Vista Elementary feed into?
By attendance boundary, Valle Vista Elementary is zoned to August Boeger Middle. August Boeger Middle has a Scope Score of 29 out of 100. Boundaries come from the U.S. Department of Education's School Attendance Boundary Survey, a 2015-16 collection and the most recent national one — they are approximate and may since have changed. A boundary is also not a placement guarantee: magnet, charter, open-enrollment and inter-district transfer options mean students from one school often continue to several different ones. Confirm your address with the district before making an enrollment or housing decision. Data source: NCES School Attendance Boundary Survey, analyzed by SchoolScope.

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.
