Summary

Cabazon Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 268 students in the Banning Unified district, which faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom 13% of all districts in California.

The school's most pressing issue is chronic absenteeism, with 44.1% of students missing too much school—a rate more than double the state average and the highest among comparable local elementary schools. Despite this major hurdle, Cabazon's academic performance in English, math, and science is actually stronger than the district average, though it still lags behind state standards. Interestingly, the school spends more per student ($17,027) than other Banning Unified elementary schools like Hemmerling Elementary and Central Elementary, yet achieves similar academic results.

When looking at nearby districts, a stark contrast emerges: all elementary schools in the neighboring Beaumont Unified district, such as Anna Hause Elementary and Sundance Elementary, rank significantly higher statewide. Within its own district, Cabazon performs in the middle of the pack, similar to Hemmerling Elementary and better than Hoffer Elementary. A notable academic concern is a steep drop in math proficiency from 3rd to 5th grade, suggesting a need for targeted support in upper grades.
