Summary:
The 92057 zip code area is home to 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 2 high schools, spread across the Oceanside Unified and Vista Unified school districts. While the area has a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, a few standouts emerge, including Mission Vista High School, which consistently ranks among the top 5% of California high schools, and Ivey Ranch Elementary and Bonsall West Elementary, which are both in the top 20% of California elementary schools.
The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with the high-performing schools demonstrating exceptional proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Math, well above the district and state averages, while the lower-performing schools struggle to meet these benchmarks. Graduation rates are also a bright spot, with the two high schools in the area, El Camino High and Mission Vista High, both exceeding the state average. However, chronic absenteeism is a concern, particularly at the middle school and some elementary school levels, which may be contributing to the lower academic performance.
The presence of a high-performing charter school, Scholarship Prep - Oceanside, within the zip code highlights the potential benefits of school choice for parents in the area. Additionally, the data suggests that district-level factors, such as resource allocation and leadership, may be influencing student outcomes, as schools in the Vista Unified district tend to outperform those in the Oceanside Unified district.
