Summary

Levi Bemis Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 566 students in the Rialto Unified School District, notable for showing significant academic improvement over the past year despite facing challenges with student attendance.

While the school's overall test scores are below state averages, it has made a remarkable jump in its statewide ranking and performs better in mathematics than most other schools in the district, including J. Calvin Boyd Elementary and J.P. Kelley Elementary. However, a major area of concern is chronic absenteeism, with nearly one-third of students missing too much school—a rate higher than at nearby schools like A. H. Morgan Elementary. This attendance issue is a significant barrier to learning that the school is working to address.

The school's progress suggests it has strengths to build upon, particularly in math instruction. Parents should note that support for English Language Learners and students in special education has varied in recent years. Compared to higher-funded schools in the area such as Lida M. Henry Elementary, Levi Bemis receives a mid-level amount of funding per student. The recent improvement indicates the school is on a positive trajectory, and focusing on consistent attendance and support for all students will be key to its continued success.
