Summary

Ramona Elementary serves 556 students in kindergarten through grade 6 in Montclair, where families have several nearby schools to compare. Its 2025–2026 results put it among the stronger local schools: it ranked third of 11 in English language arts (ELA), fourth in math and fourth in science. The most important takeaway is that Ramona scored above the state average in ELA and math, while science remains below it.

ELA is Ramona’s clearest strength: 54% of students were proficient, 7 percentage points above the Ontario-Montclair district and 4 points above the state. Its result was 12 points above the nearby-school average. Math proficiency was 41%, beating the district by 5 points, the state by 3 and nearby schools’ average by 7. Science proficiency was 31%—4 points above the district and nearby average, but 5 points below the state. So Ramona compares well locally across all three subjects, though science is the area where it has not yet caught up with the state.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: ELA rose 11 percentage points to 54%, math rose 5 points to 41%, and science rose 14 points to 31%; the science gap with the state narrowed by 9 points. Chronic absenteeism also fell, from 31% in 2021–2022 to 7% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 8% and the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger ranks Ramona at the 63rd statewide percentile with 3 stars; its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 23.1, compared with a nearby average of 22.5. In 2024–2025, 88% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby average of 87%. SchoolDigger’s group rankings show especially high relative standing for homeless students (92nd percentile) and Hispanic students (80th), compared with Ramona’s overall 63rd percentile.
