Summary
Allison Elementary serves 427 students in kindergarten through sixth grade in Pomona, within Pomona Unified. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were below both district and California rates in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. Math is its strongest subject relative to those comparisons, while science is the clearest concern: Allison’s rate was 16%, 20 percentage points below the state.
Allison compares favorably with most nearby Pomona Unified schools, but less well with nearby K–6 schools overall. It exceeded five of six nearby Pomona Unified schools in ELA and math and four of six in science. However, among eight nearby K–6 schools, including Allison, it ranked third-lowest in every subject. Those other schools averaged 45% in ELA, 34% in math, and 30% in science, compared with Allison’s 32%, 23%, and 16%. Within Allison, fifth grade was the lowest-scoring grade in both ELA and math: 20% and 16%, respectively. Sixth-grade math was also notably low at 19%, below all seven nearby K–6 schools reporting that grade.
Results have moved unevenly rather than improving steadily. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, Allison’s ELA proficiency rose by 1 percentage point and math by 4 points, while science fell by 1 point; the gap with California widened most in science, by 6 points. Chronic absenteeism has improved substantially, dropping 26 points since 2021–2022, but remained 25% in 2025–2026, above the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger places Allison at the 23rd percentile and gives it 1 star, down from its 48th-percentile standing in 2021–2022. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 22.4, and 94% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings are notably higher for English Language Learner Students (61st percentile versus 15th overall in 2023–2024) and Homeless Students (81st versus 27th overall in 2024–2025); these rankings describe the school’s standing for serving those groups.
