Summary

Chester W. Morrison Elementary serves 518 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Menifee, within the Menifee Union district. Its 2025–2026 results were stronger in math and science than in English language arts (ELA), and its overall results placed it around the middle of nearby K–5 schools. The clearest improvement is in attendance: chronic absenteeism dropped from 36% in 2021–2022 to 3% in 2025–2026, tying Evans Ranch Elementary for the lowest latest rate among nearby schools.

Math and science are the school’s strongest subjects compared with state results: 44% of Morrison students were proficient in math, 5 points above the state, and 42% in science, 6 points above. ELA was 49%, just below the state’s 49%. Compared with Menifee Union, Morrison was ahead in all three subjects, although its ELA lead was only 1 point. It was not a local leader: Morrison ranked sixth of 10 nearby K–5 schools in ELA and math, and seventh in science. Fourth-grade ELA was a standout at 58%, higher than every nearby school’s fourth-grade result; fifth-grade math was a clearer weakness at 34%, below both district and state results.

Over time, science improved most, rising 14 percentage points from 28% in 2022–2023 to 42% in 2025–2026; most of that gain came in the latest year. Math rose 3 points to 44%, while ELA was nearly flat, up 1 point to 49%. SchoolDigger places Morrison at the 63rd percentile statewide, with 3 stars; that percentile is the median among its nearby K–5 peers. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 24:1, close to the local average of 23.7:1. In 2024–2025, 73% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, among the highest nearby shares. SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 ranking for how well Morrison serves White Students was at the 30th percentile, 33 points below its overall percentile. Its 2022–2023 ranking for Military Connected Students was at the 19th percentile, compared with 61st overall that year; the data provide only that one year for this group.
