Summary

Magnolia Elementary is a K–5 school in Azusa, California, with 367 students, part of the Azusa Unified community. Its academic results are generally below nearby-school averages, and science is the clearest concern: 15% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, compared with 36% statewide and 21% districtwide. The nearby-school average was 24%, and only Clifford D. Murray Elementary and Paramount Elementary had lower results.

Math is Magnolia’s relative bright spot within its district, but not a strong result overall. Its 28% proficiency rate was 4 points above the district’s 25%, yet 10 points below the state’s 38% and 8 points below the nearby-school average of 37%; only Clifford D. Murray scored lower among the 10 nearby schools. ELA proficiency was also 28%, versus a nearby average of 40%, placing Magnolia third-lowest in the group. Within Magnolia, fourth-grade ELA was particularly weak at 23%, and fifth-grade math was 22%. The nearby comparisons include schools from other districts, and two serve through grade 6 rather than K–5.

Results have shifted over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA fell 3 percentage points and science fell 3, while math rose 5. Science has dropped from 31% in 2023–2024 to 15% in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger ranks Magnolia at the 22nd statewide percentile and gives it 1 star; only two nearby schools rank lower. Its student-teacher ratio was 22.9 in 2024–2025, close to the nearby average of 23.6. That year, 86% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby average of 76%. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students ranking fell from the 54th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 16th in 2023–2024, a sharp drop in relative standing. Its Female Students ranking also fell from the 53rd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 12th in 2024–2025, before rising to the 21st percentile in 2025–2026.
