Better than 9% of California elementary schools

Summary

McKinna Elementary is a K–5 school serving 577 students in Oxnard, California, in the Oxnard district. Its most important takeaway is that 2025–2026 proficiency was below state, district, and nearby K–5 school averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science.

Science is McKinna Elementary’s strongest subject relative to those comparisons, while ELA is its weakest. ELA proficiency was 23%, compared with 49% statewide and 34% in the district, and about 28% at the six nearby K–5 schools used for comparison. Math was 17%, versus 38% statewide, 23% in the district, and about 22% at those nearby schools. Science was 18%, compared with 36% statewide, 22% in the district, and about 21% nearby. Fourth grade stands out as a concern: its math proficiency was 10% and ELA was 20%, both second-lowest among 11 nearby schools.

Scores have improved in ELA and science since 2022–2023, rising 5 and 11 percentage points, respectively, but math fell 1 point and its gap to the state widened by 5 points. Chronic absenteeism has improved, too: it dropped from 33% in 2021–2022 to 17% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 19% and state’s 18%. McKinna Elementary’s latest SchoolDigger ranking is 5,271 of 5,804 California schools, at the 9th percentile and 0 stars; its percentile has risen from 2 in 2018–2019. The school’s 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 22.6, the highest among nearby schools, and 93% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s past English Language Learner rankings were notably stronger than its overall standing: 27th percentile versus 4th in 2021–2022, and 21st versus 9th in 2023–2024, a measure of how well the school served that group.
