Summary

Lemonwood Elementary serves 808 students in grades K–8 in Oxnard, California. In 2025–2026, 32% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 19% in math and 23% in science. The clearest concern is math: Lemonwood’s rate was 20 points below the state and 4 points below the district.

Science is Lemonwood’s strongest subject relative to the district: its 23% proficiency rate was 1 point higher than Oxnard’s, though 13 points below the state. ELA was 17 points below the state and 2 points below the district. Among nearby K–8 schools, Lemonwood had the highest ELA rate, narrowly ahead of Kamala Elementary (32.2% versus 32.0%); its math result fell between Kamala’s and Driffill Elementary’s, and its science rate was close to Driffill’s. Results also vary by grade: fourth grade was a high point, with 41% in ELA and 32% in math, both the highest among nearby schools reporting those grades. Third-grade ELA was 13%, while fifth-grade math was also 13%.

Scores have generally risen since 2022–2023: ELA increased by 4 percentage points and science by 8, while math rose by 1 point and did not keep pace with state improvement. SchoolDigger ranks Lemonwood at the 20th percentile statewide with 1 star, up from the 16th percentile in 2023–2024. Its 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 20.5, and 91% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year; California is a statewide free-meals state, so the eligibility figure is context, not a measure of who receives meals. SchoolDigger’s ranking for Special Education Students was at the 4th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 20th percentile, down from the group’s 31st percentile in 2023–2024. English Language Learner Students ranked at the 36th percentile in 2023–2024, compared with the school’s overall 16th percentile that year.
