Summary

New Lexington Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 313 students in the El Monte City district, and it stands out as a remarkable success story of consistent improvement over the past decade, rising from a lower-performing school to one that now ranks above the state average.

The school's greatest strengths are in mathematics, where student proficiency is over 15 points higher than both the district and state averages, and in attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate of less than 1% that is far better than nearly all nearby schools like Cortada Elementary and Potrero Elementary. This strong performance is particularly notable for male students, who achieve at a higher percentile ranking. The school's effective use of resources is reflected in these strong outcomes compared to other schools in the area.

While excelling in math and attendance, the school has an area for growth in science, where proficiency lags behind the district average and high-performing neighbors like Rio Vista Elementary. Overall, New Lexington consistently outperforms most other schools within the El Monte City district and serves as a model of sustained academic progress and student engagement.
