Elementary Schools in Lakeport Unified

Lakeport Unified contains one elementary school, Lakeport Elementary, serving about 530 students in kindergarten through 4th grade in this Lakeport Unified community.

As the only elementary school in the district, Lakeport Elementary faces significant academic challenges, with student proficiency in English and math far below California state averages. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 38.8% is a major concern, as regular attendance is crucial for learning. While spending per student is relatively high, the school's state ranking is in the bottom 10% of all elementary schools in California.

Despite these challenges, there are some notable patterns within the school. Fourth-grade students perform better than third graders in both subjects, and the school's math scores are slightly stronger than its English scores when compared to the wider Lakeport Unified district average. With over 80% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a community with high economic need, which often requires additional support and resources to help all students succeed.
