Woodland Hills Elementary Charter for Enriched Stu scores 61 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 84th 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 →

🏫 Solid Base — Ask what the school does for a kid who's already meeting the standard with room to spare — steady proficiency across the board doesn't tell you whether the strongest kids are being pushed further.

Most rating sites would stop at “73% proficient” and call it done. Woodland Hills Elementary Charter for Enriched Stu deserves a closer read. It sits at the 84th percentile of 5,744 California elementary schools — but the ranking is the least interesting thing on this page.

Woodland Hills Elementary Charter for Enriched Stu's low-income kids hit 66.0% proficiency in ELA — a number the same group reaches at 38.2% statewide. If you're trying to read past zip-code-driven test scores, that's the signal worth weighing.

As a charter, Woodland Hills Elementary Charter for Enriched Stu enrolls by application rather than address. That changes how you get in, but it doesn't change the score.
