Each level is scored on its own scale — elementary, middle, and high are never ranked against each other.

Stage 1 of 2

The elementary years

One elementary school: Meadow View at 27/100 — the whole story at this level is one campus.

0100
Strong Solid Developing Needs Support district avg state avg

One dot, one school — there is no spread to read at this level.

The strength

Meadow View is the strongest option at 27/100 — 12.2% of its students exceed the state standard.

The catch

21.1% of students are chronically absent (state: 17.9%) — chronic means missing 10% or more of the school year. Whatever the scores say, ask each school what it is doing about attendance.

The middle years

The middle schools average 26.8/100 — 11.8 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.

All 2 middle schools land within 4 points — the average is a fair summary here.

The strength

Students are showing up: chronic absenteeism runs 15.0% against a state average of 18.1%.

The catch

1 of 2 middle schools sits in the Needs Support band — which campus you're zoned for carries real weight here.

What it means for your family

If you're choosing a neighborhood

Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Meadow View at 27/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.

If you already live here

1 of the 3 ranked schools is a charter — enrollment paths that don't depend on your address. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, those lotteries and applications are the levers worth the paperwork.

If your kid is enrolled now

A band is a position, not a prophecy — a school's number can move without your kid's experience moving with it. Ask your school two questions: what happens for a kid who arrives behind, and what the classroom looks like for one who arrives ahead.

The strongest-scoring run through the district:

Meadow View 27th percentile · DevelopingScope Score 27/100Diamond View Middle 33rd percentile · DevelopingScope Score 29/100

Top scorers at each level — not necessarily one zoned sequence. Confirm feeder patterns and enrollment zones with the district, and visit before you decide.

What this page can't see: whether a campus feels safe and glad at 8 a.m. If a path above looks workable, the next step is a visit.

Frequently asked questions

How many schools are listed in Susanville Elementary?
This SchoolScope directory lists 3 public schools in Susanville Elementary with 2024–25 reporting records. This is directory coverage, not a complete campus inventory. Each school appears under its primary reporting level; a K–8 or K–12 campus may serve additional grades.

Among comprehensive public schools listed here, the highest Scope Score at each primary reporting level is: Elementary: Meadow View (27/100). Middle: Diamond View Middle (29/100). These are separate level rankings, not a single cross-level league table. A score does not establish fit or enrollment eligibility. See the methodology.
Can I compare elementary, middle, and high schools directly?
Compare schools at the same level and within the same enrollment group. Scope Score formulas and available measures differ by level. The plots show comprehensive public schools separately for each level; individual profiles explain their comparison group.
Does living in Susanville Elementary guarantee a particular school?
A district outline does not establish assignment to an individual school. Attendance boundaries, programs, permits, and available space can affect enrollment. Confirm the requirements directly with the district.
What does a SchoolScope pattern mean?
Archetypes summarize patterns in publicly reported academic and school-climate measures. They describe reported results, not a school’s quality or a child’s fit. Open the school profile for reporting years, missing measures, and questions to ask. Read how the patterns are defined.
Where do these results come from?
The underlying public data comes from the California Department of Education, including CAASPP reporting for 2024–25. Scope Scores and archetypes are SchoolScope calculations, not official CDE ratings. View CDE data and SchoolScope’s methodology and limitations.
