The headline number: 51.2% of students scored in the top band on the state test. The California average is 21.6%.

What are Valley View Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 74.6% of students at Valley View Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 51.2% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 23.3% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 51.2% pushed past it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it reveals whether a school's curriculum challenges students beyond minimum proficiency or paces toward it. 356 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Valley View Elementary rank in California?
Valley View Elementary ranks #343 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 93rd percentile. 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.
Is Valley View Elementary getting better or worse?
Based on 2025 CAASPP data, proficiency at Valley View Elementary increases by 5.7 percentage points from Grade 3 to grade 5 growth. This upward trajectory suggests the school is adding measurable value — students leave with higher proficiency rates than they entered with. Growth trajectory is weighted at 15% in the elementary Scope Score because it measures what the school does, not just who walks in the door.

SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
