Summary

Marina West Elementary is a K–5 school serving 440 students in Oxnard, California. Its latest test scores are ahead of the district in English Language Arts (ELA), mathematics and science, but below state results in all three. The most pressing concern is attendance: 29% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, the highest rate among the nearby schools compared.

Mathematics is a particular strength: Marina West ranked second among 11 schools for all-grades math results, with 37% proficient, compared with 23% in the Oxnard district and 38% statewide. ELA and science proficiency were also 37% and 25%, respectively—above district results of 34% and 22%, but below state results of 49% and 36%. The school ranked fourth among 11 in both subjects. Within grades, fourth-grade math stands out: 40% proficient, the highest nearby result for that grade and just 2 percentage points below the state. Fifth-grade ELA is a weaker spot: 34% proficient, below the district’s 35% and state’s 49%; six nearby schools scored higher.

Scores have improved since 2022–2023: proficiency rose 13 percentage points in ELA, 19 in math and 7 in science. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking increased from the 9th percentile in 2021–2022 to the 41st in 2025–2026, and its rating rose from 0 to 2 stars; among nearby schools, only Hollywood Beach ranked higher. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 19.1, the second-lowest nearby, and 84% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Hispanic students reached the 58th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 41st percentile. Its ranking for special education students climbed from the 18th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 48th in 2025–2026, also above the overall ranking; these are relative rankings, not individual student results.
