Summary

Warner Elementary is a small K–6 school serving 106 students in Warner Springs, in Warner Unified. In 2025–2026, students’ all-grade proficiency was 29% in English, 16% in math and 15% in science. The most important takeaway is that results were below California’s in all three subjects, and Warner ranked at or near the bottom of nearby schools in English and math.

Compared with nearby schools reporting results, Warner had the lowest all-grade English and math rates: English was 29%, versus 33% at Borrego Springs Elementary, 44% at Julian Elementary and 50% at Spencer Valley Elementary; math was 16%, compared with 17%, 51% and 35%, respectively. Warner’s 5th-grade English is a relative bright spot: 54%, above the state’s 49% and Julian’s 44%. Across all grades, Warner was 20 percentage points below the state in English, 22 below in math and 21 below in science. It was also below Warner Unified in English by 4 points and science by 3, but 1 point above the district in math.

English has improved overall, rising 4 percentage points from 25% in 2022–2023 to 29% in 2025–2026, while the state gap narrowed from 21 to 20 points. Math fell 7 points and science fell 11 over that period, and their gaps with the state widened. SchoolDigger places Warner at the 15th percentile, with 1 star, in 2025–2026—below Borrego at the 20th percentile and Julian at the 60th. Warner’s 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 21.2, and 72% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that school year; California is identified as a state where all students receive free meals (Community Eligibility). One notable group ranking: Multi-racial Students were at the 7th percentile in SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings in both 2021–2022 and 2022–2023, compared with the school’s overall percentiles of 36 and 35, respectively—a markedly lower ranking for how well Warner serves this group.
