Summary

J. Marion Roynon Elementary serves 842 students in grades K–5 in La Verne and has the largest enrollment among the nearby schools listed; it is part of Bonita Unified. The key takeaway is that Roynon’s results are above California averages but behind nearby same-district K–5 schools, with the widest gap in science: 13 percentage points below their average in 2025–26.

Roynon’s 2025–26 proficiency rates were 65% in English language arts, 63% in math, and 41% in science—above state rates by 16, 25, and 5 points, respectively. But the school trailed the district by 8 points in English, 1 in math, and 19 in science. Compared with the five nearby Bonita Unified K–5 schools, it was 3 points below their English average, 5 below in math, and 13 below in science. Roynon ranked fourth of six schools in English and math and lowest in science. Third-grade English is a local bright spot: Roynon ranked second among the six schools, while its fifth-grade English and math results each ranked fifth.

Science is also the clearest downward trend: Roynon’s rate fell 15 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26, while the state rate rose 6 points. Chronic absenteeism improved, falling 18 points from 2021–22 to 2025–26; the latest rate of 9% was below the district’s 10% and state’s 18%.
