Summary

Ramona Elementary is a public elementary school located in Montclair, CA, serving 569 students in grades K-6. It is part of the Ontario-Montclair School District, which is ranked 752 out of 1,565 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Ramona Elementary consistently performs below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics, the school has seen a significant increase in spending per student, from $8,956 in 2020-2021 to $22,341 in 2023-2024. This may be an effort to address the school's challenges, which include high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 16.2% to 24.9% over the past few years, much higher than the state average. Additionally, Ramona Elementary serves a predominantly underprivileged student population, with 92.03% to 94.55% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years.

Interestingly, Ramona Elementary's performance is generally lower than the nearby Monte Vista Elementary and Howard Elementary within the same district, but it outperforms some of the nearby schools in other districts, such as Alcott Elementary and Kingsley Elementary in the Pomona Unified School District, which have even lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism.
