Summary

David W. Long Elementary serves 757 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Fontana, in the Etiwanda Elementary district. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were well above California’s in English language arts (ELA), math and science, and its clearest overall strength is that it exceeds the state in all three subjects: 69% in ELA, 69% in math and 59% in science, compared with 49%, 38% and 36% statewide.

The school’s strongest local results are in math and science, while ELA is less competitive. Among 11 nearby schools, including David W. Long, it ranks third in math and science but fifth in ELA; its scores are above the nearby-school averages in all three subjects. Compared with the district, its math and science results are higher by 8 and 10 percentage points, while ELA is essentially level, just 0.16 points higher. Among the other nearby Etiwanda Elementary schools, David W. Long’s ELA score is below their average. Within grades, third-grade ELA is a relative weakness, while fifth-grade math is a local highlight: 68%, second-highest among the seven nearby Etiwanda schools, behind John L. Golden Elementary.

Results have improved since 2022–2023, especially in science, which rose 19 percentage points to 59%; ELA increased 5 points and math 6 points. The state gap widened in each subject, meaning the school’s results rose faster than the state’s. SchoolDigger ranks the school in the 88th percentile statewide and awards it 4 stars; its overall percentile rose from 77 in 2021–2022. Nearby, John L. Golden Elementary ranks at the 95th percentile and Falcon Ridge Elementary at the 89th. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 25.1, the highest among the 11 schools, and 23% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a notable relative weakness for “Multi-racial Students”: 41st percentile in 2024–2025, compared with the school’s overall 84th percentile. For “Homeless Students,” the 2021–2022 ranking was at the 97th percentile, above the school’s overall 77th percentile that year.
