Summary

Elsinore Elementary serves 462 students in grades K–5 in Lake Elsinore, within Lake Elsinore Unified. Its 2025–2026 proficiency results were 17% in English language arts (ELA), 10% in math and 11% in science. The most important finding is that Elsinore had the lowest results among nearby K–5 schools in all three subjects.

Results are below district, state and nearby-school levels in every subject. ELA proficiency was 23 percentage points below the district and 32 below the state; math was 15 and 29 points lower, and science was 16 and 25 points lower. Science is a relative bright spot: Elsinore’s results were 15 points below the nearby K–5 average, compared with gaps of 25 points in ELA and 24 in math. Math is the school’s weakest subject by its own results and drops from 17% in grade 3 to 5% in grade 5. Attendance is improving but remains a concern: chronic absenteeism fell from 47% in 2021–2022 to 30% in 2025–2026, still above the district’s 23% and state’s 18%.

Over four years, school results declined overall while state results rose: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Elsinore’s ELA fell 1 percentage point, math fell 1 point and science fell 5 points; state results rose 3, 4 and 6 points, respectively. SchoolDigger ranks Elsinore in the 2nd statewide percentile with 0 stars, the lowest nearby ranking; the next lowest is Machado Elementary at the 7th percentile. Context includes a 23.5 student–teacher ratio and, in 2024–2025, 95% of students reported as free/reduced lunch eligible. California provides free school meals statewide; this eligibility figure is the school’s own measure. One historical bright spot in SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings is English Language Learner Students: the school ranked in the 23rd percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the overall 7th percentile that year.
