About schools in Solano County

Eighty-five ranked public schools spread across seven districts gives Solano County families a genuine range of options, from Vallejo's urban campuses to the quieter suburban schools of Benicia and Vacaville. The county leans heavily on its elementary base — 58 schools at that level alone — with 12 charter options adding further variety. Top performers are scattered across multiple cities: Matthew Turner Elementary in Benicia leads at the 88th percentile statewide, while Nelda Mundy Elementary in Fairfield and Buckingham Collegiate Charter Academy in Vacaville both clear the 83rd.
