Summary

Will Rogers Elementary is a K–6 school in Lynwood, California, with 684 students, making it the second-largest of the 11 nearby schools compared. Its 2025–26 results show a clear difference by subject: math is a local strength, while ELA is the weakest relative to the state and district. The most important takeaway is that math stands out against nearby schools, but proficiency remains below California’s rate in all three tested subjects.

Math is the school’s strongest subject compared with local and district results: 36% of students were proficient, 13 percentage points above Lynwood Unified and 7 points above the nearby-school average; Will Rogers ranked third among the 11 schools. It exceeded the district in math at every tested grade. However, its math result was still 2 points below the state rate. ELA is the clearest weakness: 35% were proficient, compared with 38% at nearby schools and 1 point more at the district, and it was 15 points below the state. Science proficiency was 23%, about the same as the nearby average and 6 points above the district, but 13 points below the state.

Over four reported years, math proficiency rose 7 percentage points and science rose 9, while ELA increased just 1 point; the state gap narrowed in math and science but widened in ELA. Chronic absenteeism improved by 9 points since 2021–22, to 31% in 2025–26, close to the district rate but 13 points above California’s. SchoolDigger ranked Will Rogers in the 40th percentile and gave it 2 stars in 2025–26; its percentile standing has slipped from 44 in 2023–24. The student–teacher ratio was 23.5 in 2024–25, compared with a nearby average of 22. The school reported that 90% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, roughly the same as the nearby average.
