Summary

Rorimer Elementary serves 405 students in grades K–6 in La Puente, within Rowland Unified. SchoolDigger places the district at the 52nd percentile statewide with 3 stars, while Rorimer is at the 18th percentile with 1 star. The most important finding is that Rorimer’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates were below both state and district results in all three reported subjects, with the widest shortfall in science.

Mathematics is Rorimer’s strongest subject relative to the state, district and nearby schools, while science is its weakest. In 2025–2026, 21% of Rorimer students were proficient in math, compared with 38% statewide, 38% in the district and a 23% average among six nearby K–6 schools. ELA proficiency was 30%, versus 49% statewide, 49% in the district and a 34% nearby-school average. Science proficiency was 12%, compared with 36% statewide, 37% in the district and a 17% nearby-school average. The science gap was 24 percentage points below the state and 25 below the district; the nearby-school comparison also shows Rorimer furthest behind in science.

Results have declined over the four years reported even as state rates rose: Rorimer’s ELA proficiency fell 5 percentage points, math fell 3 and science fell 4, while state proficiency increased in all three subjects. Chronic absenteeism, however, improved from 30% in 2021–2022 to 14% in 2025–2026, below the district’s 16% and state’s 18%. Rorimer’s student-teacher ratio was 20.7 in 2024–2025, the third-lowest among the school and 10 nearby schools; 92% of students were recorded as free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the third-highest share among nearby schools with that measure. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a notably stronger relative ranking for Homeless Students—53rd percentile in 2025–2026 versus 18th overall—and a drop for Male Students, from the 37th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 15th in 2025–2026.
