Elsinore Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 5-10% of California elementary schools, with a statewide rank between 5,252 and 5,592 out of around 5,600-5,900 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on standardized tests is significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas, particularly in mathematics, where only 11.34% of students were proficient or better in 2024-2025, compared to 37.3% statewide and 24.77% in the district.
