Furgeson (Venn W.) Elementary up 671 spots statewide this year
Summary:

ZIP code 90716 has two elementary schools, Hawaiian Elementary and Furgeson (Venn W.) Elementary, both serving kindergarten through grade 6 in ABC Unified. They have nearly identical enrollment, with 298 and 297 students. In 2025–2026, both schools’ all-grade ELA and math results were below state results, while science showed the sharpest difference between them. The most important distinction for families comparing these schools is that Hawaiian led Furgeson in all three all-grade subjects, especially science.

Hawaiian stands out for its 2025–2026 all-grade results: 41% proficient in ELA, 32% in math and 46% in science, compared with 38%, 31% and 13% at Furgeson. The science gap is 33 percentage points; the ELA and math gaps are 3 and 1 point. Hawaiian’s science result was 10 points above the state’s 36%, while Furgeson’s was 23 points below. Furgeson has important strengths too: its grade 3 results exceeded the state by 5 points in ELA and 12 in math. Its all-grade CSA Spanish results also topped state results in Overall, Listening, Writing and Reading, by 3, 7, 2 and 3 points, respectively.

Results improved over time in ELA and math, but science trends differed. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Hawaiian gained 5 points in ELA and 2 in math; Furgeson gained 6 in each. Hawaiian’s science result rose 17 points, while Furgeson’s fell 6. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile rankings also rose from 2023–2024 to 2025–2026: from the 43rd to the 47th percentile for Hawaiian and from the 28th to the 38th for Furgeson; both received two stars in the latest year. Their 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible measures were 94% and 93%, and their student-teacher ratios were similar at 18.6 and 18.5. These figures offer context, but do not explain differences in results. Grade-level results can vary with cohort size.
