Summary

Westmont Elementary is a K–5 school with 441 students in Westminster, California, and is part of the Ocean View School District. The key concern is that its 2025–2026 proficiency results were below both state and district levels in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. Westmont also ranked near the bottom of nearby K–5 schools in all three subjects, making broad academic performance the most important issue for families to consider.

Westmont’s science result was its closest to the state: 35% of students met proficiency, compared with 36% statewide, though the district was higher at 48%. ELA proficiency was 41%, below the state’s 49%, the district’s 56%, and the nearby K–5 average of 58%; math was 34%, versus 38% statewide, 50% in the district, and a nearby average of 57%. Westmont was second-lowest in the nearby K–5 group in all three subjects. Fifth-grade ELA is a bright spot: 51% met proficiency, slightly above the state’s 49%. Math is the clearest weakness, particularly in fourth grade (32%) and fifth grade (29%).

Results have shifted unevenly: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA was essentially flat, math fell by 6 percentage points, and science rose by 6 points. Science also jumped 16 points in the latest year, while math declined by 2. SchoolDigger places Westmont at the 47th percentile statewide (rank 3,086 of 5,804; 2 stars), up from the 42nd percentile the prior year but below its 56th-percentile standing in 2022–2023; the district is at the 73rd percentile with 4 stars. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 23.8, and 81% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. One notable SchoolDigger subgroup result is the 11th-percentile ranking for military-connected students in 2025–2026, down from the 67th percentile in 2023–2024. These subgroup rankings compare schools statewide and are not direct measures of individual students’ progress.
