Vina Elementary scores 34 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 28th percentile of 5,744 California elementary schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).
Measures test performance, attendance, and climate — not arts, community, or your kid. How we score →
Most rating sites would stop at “42% proficient” and call it done. Vina deserves a closer read. The school sits in Vina, where more than half of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Vina Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 41.6% of students at Vina Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 17.3% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 24.3% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 17.3% 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. 53 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Vina Elementary rank in California?
Vina Elementary ranks #4,153 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 28th 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.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Vina Elementary?
10.3% of students at Vina Elementary are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), which is better than the California average of 17.9%. The suspension rate is 0.6%, indicating a low-discipline-incident environment. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
