Summary

Lemoore Elementary is a public K-6 school serving 508 students in the Lemoore Union Elementary district, which ranks in the top half of all California districts, but the school itself faces significant academic challenges with recent performance trending downward.

Academically, the school consistently performs below the district average in all core subjects, ranking 4th out of five schools within its own district and earning a 2-star rating for the 2024-2025 year. Its proficiency rates in English and Math are notably lower than nearby schools like P. W. Engvall Elementary and Freedom Elementary. Performance is particularly uneven by grade, with 3rd-grade English and 5th-grade Math being areas of concern. The school also shows a stark performance gap when compared to schools in neighboring districts such as Central Union Elementary, where R. J. Neutra and Akers Elementary achieve much higher scores with significantly greater per-student funding.

Despite these academic hurdles, Lemoore Elementary has achieved a major success in dramatically improving student attendance, reducing chronic absenteeism from over 35% to 15.8% in just three years—a rate now better than the state average. The school serves a population with high economic need, similar to Meadow Lane Elementary and Cinnamon Elementary. While recent test score declines are a serious focus, the school's effective strategies to get students to school regularly provide a strong foundation for addressing its academic goals.
