Summary

Mountain Meadows Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 424 students in the Moorpark Unified district, consistently earning a 4-star rating and performing above California state averages in English, Math, and Science.

When compared to nearby elementary schools, however, Mountain Meadows Elementary finds itself in the middle of the pack academically, ranking 5th or 6th out of eight local schools in core subjects. Notably, it spends significantly more per student—over $18,000—than neighbors like Campus Canyon Elementary and Walnut Canyon Elementary, yet its academic results are not proportionally higher. A significant challenge is its chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7%, which is much higher than at schools like Wildwood Elementary (1.7%) and Walnut Canyon Elementary (5.3%), and this likely impacts overall performance.

The school shows varying success with different student groups, with particularly low performance for English Language Learners. Math scores also show a concerning decline from 3rd to 5th grade. While it is a solid school that beats state averages, targeted efforts to improve attendance and review how resources are used could help it achieve outcomes more like its higher-performing neighbors, such as Santa Rosa Technology Magnet and Wildwood Elementary, which excel with similar or lower spending.
