Summary:
ZIP code 91765 has 10 schools: seven elementary, two middle and one high school. Six are in Walnut Valley Unified and four in Pomona Unified. In 2025–2026, the average across the schools was 69% proficient in English language arts (ELA), 63% in math and 55% in science, compared with California averages of 49%, 38% and 36%. These are unweighted all-grades school averages, and schools serve different grade spans. The most important takeaway is that averages above the state conceal a wide divide between schools, especially in math, where results spanned 55 percentage points.
Pantera Elementary led ELA at 82%, 15 percentage points above the other nine schools’ average. Chaparral Middle led math at 81%, 20 points above the other schools’ average, and was also second in ELA at 81%. Quail Summit Elementary led science at 76%, 22 points above the other schools’ average. At the lower end, Armstrong Elementary had the lowest ELA and math results, 45% and 26%; its math result was 41 points below the other schools’ average. Lorbeer Middle had the lowest science result at 33%, 25 points below the other schools’ average.
Average results changed little overall: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, school-group ELA fell about 1 point, math was nearly unchanged, and science rose about 2 points. Individual schools differed: Armstrong gained 13 points in science, while Maple Hill Elementary fell 11 points. Pantera stands out within its district: SchoolDigger gives it a five-star rating and a 96th-percentile school ranking, compared with Pomona Unified’s two stars and 30th-percentile district ranking. The reported free/reduced lunch-eligible shares for 2024–2025 also varied: 48% at Pantera and 67% at Armstrong. Ratios offer another point of comparison, but do not line up neatly with results: Chaparral had 28.2 students per teacher and led math, while Armstrong had 18.5 and ranked lowest in ELA and math.
