Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.
The elementary years
The elementary schools average 33.8/100 — 5.0 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.
4 elementary schools span 16 points around an average of 33.8.
Rio Vista Elementary is the strongest option at 39/100 — 16.8% of its students exceed the state standard.
1 of 4 elementary schools sits in the Needs Support band — which campus you're zoned for carries real weight here.
The middle years
One middle school: Fillmore Middle at 20/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.
One dot, one school — there is no spread to read at this level.
Fillmore Middle is the strongest option at 20/100 — 4.2% of its students exceed the state standard.
24.9% of students are chronically absent (state: 18.1%) — chronic means missing 10% or more of the school year. Whatever the scores say, ask each school what it is doing about attendance.
The high school years
The high schools average 40.7/100 — 13.3 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.
2 high schools span 19 points around an average of 40.7.
1 continuation/alternative school not plotted — it ranks within its own class, not on this statewide axis.
Fillmore Senior High is the strongest option at 50/100 — 8.3% of its students exceed the state standard.
31.6% of students are chronically absent (state: 23.1%) — chronic means missing 10% or more of the school year. Whatever the scores say, ask each school what it is doing about attendance.
What it means for your family
Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Rio Vista Elementary at 39/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.
No charters or magnets among the ranked schools here, so the main lever is an intra-district transfer — California districts run them on their own windows and criteria. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, ask the district office for this year's dates.
A band is a position, not a prophecy — 3 campuses here rank as On the Rise, their returning cohorts gaining more than most schools statewide. Ask your school two questions: what happens for a kid who arrives behind, and what the classroom looks like for one who arrives ahead.
