Better than 10% of California elementary schools

Summary

Lyndon B. Johnson Elementary serves 560 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Indio, in the Desert Sands Unified area. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates are below district and state results in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The clearest concern is science: 12% of students were proficient, 24 points below the state and 12 points below the nearby K–5 schools’ average.

ELA is the school’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools, while math and especially science are weaker. ELA proficiency was 26%, compared with 43% in the district and 49% statewide; it was 4 points below the nearby-school average and around the middle of that group. Math was 15%, versus 28% districtwide and 38% statewide, and 7 points below the nearby average. Science was 12%, compared with 29% in the district and 36% statewide; only one nearby K–5 school scored lower. Fourth-grade ELA is a relative bright spot: 30% were proficient, slightly above the nearby-school average of 29%, though below district and state results.

ELA and math have improved since their 2023–2024 lows, but neither has regained its 2022–2023 level; science is up slightly over four years, while the state’s gains have been larger. Chronic absenteeism has fallen from 54% in 2021–2022 to 36% in 2025–2026, but remains above the district’s 29% and the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger places the school at the 10th percentile with 0 stars in 2025–2026, near the lower end of nearby schools, despite a rise from the 6th percentile in 2023–2024. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 21.1, the lowest among nearby schools; 90% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. One notable SchoolDigger subgroup trend is English Language Learner Students: the school’s percentile fell from 46 in 2021–2022 to 3 in 2023–2024, indicating a sharp decline in its rating for how well it serves that group.
