Summary

Boone Elementary is a K–5 school in San Diego Unified in San Diego, California, with 342 students. Its nearby comparison group includes elementary and K–8 schools, though the fairest all-grade comparisons are with nearby K–5 schools. In 2025–2026, Boone’s proficiency was below both the state and district in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. The most important finding is that Boone’s results are low across all three subjects, especially in ELA and math.

Science is Boone’s strongest subject relative to nearby K–5 schools, while math is its weakest. Boone’s proficiency was 29% in ELA, 23% in math, and 29% in science; the six nearby K–5 schools averaged 41%, 35%, and 26%, respectively. So Boone was 12 points below that group in ELA and 13 points below in math, but 2 points above in science. It scored higher than only one of those six schools in math, while it scored above four in science. Boone was also below San Diego Unified and California in every subject: by 25 and 20 points in ELA, 23 and 16 points in math, and 13 and 7 points in science, respectively.

Boone’s science results have improved over the longer term, but that progress has not carried over to ELA and math. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, science proficiency rose from 12% to 29%, while ELA slipped from 30% to 29% and math from 28% to 23%. Chronic absenteeism also fell substantially, from 53% in 2021–2022 to 23% in 2025–2026, but remained above the latest state rate of 18% and district rate of 17%. SchoolDigger places Boone at the 23rd percentile with 1 star, tied for the lowest percentile among nearby schools with a result that year. Its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 24.4, the second-highest among nearby schools with reported figures. Boone reported 84% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, above the nearby-school average of 82%; this is context, not an explanation for its results. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well Boone serves English Language Learner Students fell from the 60th and 61st percentiles in 2021–2022 and 2022–2023 to the 26th percentile in 2023–2024. Its Female Students ranking was stronger than its overall ranking in 2025–2026: the 38th percentile versus 23rd.
