Summary:
The 92821 zip code area in Brea, California is home to 9 schools serving grades K-12, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools (one of which is a continuation school), and no alternative schools. These schools are part of the Brea-Olinda Unified School District, which is ranked 318 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Within this district, a few schools stand out as top performers. Olinda Elementary ranks in the top 381 elementary schools in California and has a 5-star rating, with over 77% of students proficient in English Language Arts/Literacy and over 80% proficient in Mathematics. Similarly, Falcon Academy of Science and Technology is a 5-star elementary school in the top 575 in the state, with over 73% proficiency in English and 68% in Math. At the high school level, Brea Olinda High ranks in the top 247 high schools in California and has a 4-star rating, with a high 94.5% 4-year graduation rate and a low 3% dropout rate.
However, the district also has some lower-performing schools, such as Laurel Elementary and Arovista Elementary, which have significantly lower test scores compared to the top-performing elementary schools. Additionally, the Brea Canyon High (Continuation) school has much lower test scores, higher dropout rates, and higher chronic absenteeism than the district's main high school. This suggests potential inequities and a need to further support the district's lower-performing schools and address the needs of at-risk students.
