What this means for your family

Ask whether the low absenteeism and suspension numbers come from what the school does or from the community it serves — both can produce the same numbers, and only a visit tells you which.

Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025

Climbed from the 29th to the 42nd percentile since 2019 — past roughly 600 elementary schools.

Most rating sites would stop at “35% proficient” and call it done. Will Rogers deserves a closer read. Three in five of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

210 tested · 3 of 3 grades published · cohort of 66 tracked

Will Rogers Elementary scores 33 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 42nd percentile of 5,721 California elementary schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

The pandemic drop is behind this school: 35% of students meet the standard today, above the 27% who did in 2019.

California’s growth results and student groups
State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25

Our growth read and California's own model disagree here — the 41st percentile against the state's 25th.

Context — never part of the Scope Score

California runs its own growth model, following individual children in grades 4 through 8 rather than comparing school-wide averages the way we do — and here the two measures disagree. Ours puts this school around the 41st percentile of California elementary schools; the state's puts it around the 25th in reading and math together — a harder read than ours. We are not going to pretend one of those is the answer. Neither measure sees an individual child's classroom, and a disagreement this size is worth asking the principal about directly.

— 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 elementary school lands at +2 in reading, and the middle half of them fall between −5 and +9 — 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.

— 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 Ventura High, which sent 25 graduates to UC campuses last fall and teaches 21 AP subjects. Those numbers describe past cohorts — a child starting here today would reach Ventura High around 2035, and 10 years is a long time for a school to hold still, and by the state's 2023 count 80% of Ventura High's graduates enrolled in college somewhere, UC or not.

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 what changes between grade 3 and grade 5 here, and who teaches the older kids.
  • 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 Will Rogers Elementary a good elementary school?
Will Rogers Elementary has a Scope Score of 33 out of 100, placing it in the 42nd percentile of California elementary schools and ranked #3,323 statewide. 18.2% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 3.2 percentage points below the California average of 21.4%. The Scope Score weights 6 dimensions for elementary schools: exceeded standard (42%), met or exceeded (proficient) (23%), grade 3-to-5 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 Will Rogers Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 34.7% of students at Will Rogers Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 18.2% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 16.5% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 18.2% 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. 420 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Will Rogers Elementary rank in California?
Will Rogers Elementary ranks #3,323 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 42nd percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), same-cohort growth (2023 G3 → 2025 G5), 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 Will Rogers Elementary getting better or worse?
SchoolScope follows the same cohort of students across grades rather than comparing two different grades in the same year. At Will Rogers Elementary that cohort is 2023 G3 → 2025 G5, measured in SBAC scale-score points. Its gain ranks below avg among California elementary schools — roughly the 41st percentile, behind the typical school at this level. Read the ranking, not the raw point gain: scale scores rise with age, so nearly every school posts a positive number and only the relative position tells you anything. Growth is weighted at 20% in the elementary Scope Score because it is the least demographically confounded signal available — it tracks change over time rather than the level students arrived at. See full methodology.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Will Rogers Elementary?
11.7% of students at Will Rogers 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.
How does Will Rogers Elementary compare to other schools in Ventura?
Will Rogers Elementary scores 33/100 (42nd percentile) among California 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 426 students. Use the schools in Ventura page or the map view to compare all elementary schools nearby.
How does Will Rogers Elementary serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Will Rogers Elementary in Ventura, 16.9% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 36.8% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Will Rogers Elementary trails its district average for low-income students by 19.9 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (16.9% Math proficient); Hispanic students (24.2% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 36.0 percentage points for english learner students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 130 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.

A closer look at the evidence

Will Rogers Elementary: reading the evidence

Will Rogers posts 35% meeting the standard and 18.2% exceeding it, against 43% and 21.4% statewide. The gaps and the bright spots below are the real read.

Subject proficiency describes tested students, while graduation describes a graduating cohort. These figures are not successive stages followed by the same students.

Ask whether the low absenteeism and suspension numbers come from what the school does or from the community it serves — both can produce the same numbers, and only a visit tells you which.

Grade gap = this year's grade 3 vs grade 5 result, two different sets of students, not a trend for any one child — it is not the measurement the Scope Score's growth dimension uses. See §01 above and /methodology#verdicts for the school's actual scored (cohort) growth.

  • — Low-income students here trail the state average for their group by 21 points in ELA — worth asking how the school is closing that gap.

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. 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.
