of 5,817 California Elementary Schools

Better than 23% of California elementary schools

Summary

Yermo Elementary is a K–8 school with 368 students in Yermo, served by Silver Valley Unified. In 2025–2026, about 32% of students met standards in English language arts (ELA), 24% in math and 26% in science; each result was below the district and California rates. The key takeaway is mixed: the school trails state and district benchmarks in every subject, but its ELA and math results are stronger than the nearby-school averages.

Compared with the eight nearby schools, Yermo ranked third in both all-grade ELA and math. Its ELA result was 10 points above the nearby average, and its math result was 5 points above. Still, Yermo’s ELA rate was 18 points below the state and 11 below the district; math was 14 points below the state and 6 below the district. Science was 10 points below both state and district rates; Newberry Springs Elementary is the only nearby school with a reported all-grade science result, and its rate was higher. Seventh grade is a notable bright spot: Yermo’s ELA result was 47% and math was 39%, with math slightly above the state rate. By contrast, third-grade ELA and math were each 21%, and eighth-grade math was 14%. Nearby schools serve different grade spans, so all-grade comparisons are best read alongside same-grade results.

Results have improved since 2022–2023, particularly in science: ELA rose 8 points, math 9 points and science 19 points. But ELA and math fell in the latest year, by 3 and 2 points respectively. SchoolDigger ranked Yermo at the 23rd percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026, down from the 38th percentile the prior year; the district ranked at the 37th percentile with 2 stars. Context includes a student–teacher ratio of 18.1 in 2024–2025, below the nearby average of 21.5, and 86% of students free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves Special Education Students was at the 79th percentile in 2024–2025, compared with its overall 38th percentile that year. Its ranking for how well it serves White Students was at the 4th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 23rd percentile.
