Summary

Grace Miller Elementary is a K–5 school in La Verne, in Bonita Unified, serving 448 students. Its latest results put it among the strongest nearby schools, with especially strong math and science performance: in 2025–2026 it led the five nearby same-district elementary schools in both subjects.

Achievement is strong compared with the district and state across all three subjects. Grace Miller scored 75% in English language arts (ELA), 80% in math, and 67% in science, versus 73%, 64%, and 60% for Bonita Unified and 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide. It also exceeded the nearby schools’ average results by 9 points in ELA, 15 in math, and 18 in science. Oak Mesa Elementary came close in ELA (75.1% versus 74.7%), but Grace Miller led the local group in math and science. Results vary by grade: fifth-grade ELA reached 89%, and fourth-grade math reached 89%, both local highs; third-grade ELA was a relative weak spot at 63%, 3 points below the district.

Math has risen substantially, from 62% in 2022–2023 to 80% in 2025–2026, while science was nearly unchanged over that period, moving from 66% to 67%. Chronic absenteeism improved from 36% in 2021–2022 to 9% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 10% and the state’s 18%.
