Summary

Lexington Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 537 students in Pomona, CA, within the Pomona Unified School District, and it stands out for its strong academic performance in the upper grades despite facing significant economic challenges.

While the school's overall state ranking is low, it has developed remarkable areas of strength, particularly in mathematics and in supporting English Language Learners. Students in 7th and 8th grade excel, with math proficiency rates far exceeding the district average, suggesting the K-8 model provides valuable continuity.

However, its substantial per-student funding and proven success in specific areas indicate potential for broader improvement. For parents, Lexington represents a school with specific, powerful strengths in its upper grades and for students learning English, within a district where most schools face similar challenges.
