Summary

Olive Grove Charter - Lompoc is a K–12 alternative school in Lompoc, California, serving 125 students. In 2025–2026, 24% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 6% in math and 4% in science, below California rates of 49%, 38% and 36%, respectively. Among nearby schools with results that year, Lompoc had the lowest ELA and science proficiency and the second-lowest math proficiency.

ELA is Lompoc’s strongest subject relative to the state, while math is weakest by a small margin: the state gaps were 25 percentage points in ELA, 32 in math and 32 in science. Against nearby-school averages of 50% in ELA, 25% in math and 38% in science, Lompoc was lower by 26, 19 and 34 points, respectively—making math its closest comparison and science its weakest. Results are below the state in all three subjects, and no district test scores are provided for the Olive Grove Charter - Lompoc District.

Over the four years from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Lompoc’s ELA proficiency rose by just 1 percentage point, while math fell by 2 points and science by 4; the gaps with the state widened in all three subjects.
