Summary

Willmore Elementary is a public elementary school in Westminster, California, serving 484 students in grades K-6. The school is part of the Westminster School District, which is ranked 538 out of 1,565 districts in the state.

Willmore Elementary faces some academic challenges, with student performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments (SBA) in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics generally lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 47.77% of Willmore students were proficient or better in SBA English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 54.49% for the Westminster district and 48.81% for California. The school has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 9.0% in 2021-2022 to 20.4% in 2023-2024. However, Willmore Elementary has shown strengths in supporting its English Language Learner (ELL) and Hispanic student populations, ranking in the top 5% and top 30% of California elementary schools, respectively, in recent years.

Interestingly, Willmore Elementary's performance on SBA assessments is generally lower than nearby Meairs Elementary, Jessie Hayden Elementary, and Schroeder Elementary, but the school outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Schmitt Elementary and Finley Elementary, in certain subject areas and grade levels. The school has also seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $13,303 in 2020-2021 to $22,716 in 2023-2024, which may be related to its efforts to address the needs of its high-needs student population.

What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, February 23, 2017

The school received a new Principle for the 2016-2017 school year! Dr. Jacobson is a dedicated principle with a passion for teaching! She is can be seen in classrooms sharing her love of math with all her students. She's very involved in her school community and is always available to speak to parents! I my child has been at Willmore since Pre-K and I absolutely appreciate the small classroom sizes and that teachers are much more able to TEACH each child and cater to their individual needs. As head of PTA I am also proud to say we are constantly working to create a community between the school and parents. Vietnamese and Spanish liaisons are available on-site from 7:30am-10:30am every day for parents/families to come talk to someone at the school. I'm very happy with Willmore and am confident the school will improve its test scores in the near future. Close Quote
