Summary

Lomita Park Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 277 students in San Bruno, California, as part of the highly-rated Millbrae Elementary district, though its academic performance has been declining and now ranks well below the district's other elementary schools.

Key data shows Lomita Park faces significant challenges, with student proficiency in English, math, and science less than half the district average and chronic absenteeism rates more than double that of its peers. This is particularly striking when compared to other schools in the same district, like Green Hills Elementary and Spring Valley Elementary, which consistently achieve much higher scores. Performance also varies greatly by grade, with a notable drop in 5th-grade results, and the school spends more per student than some of these higher-performing neighbors without seeing better outcomes.

For context, schools in the neighboring Burlingame Elementary district, such as Hoover Elementary, rank among the state's best, while some in the San Bruno Park Elementary district face similar struggles to Lomita Park. The analysis suggests that addressing attendance and providing targeted support for struggling students could be crucial steps for improvement, leveraging the successful strategies of other schools within its own district.
