Summary:

Zip code 92345 has 13 elementary schools: 12 Hesperia Unified schools serving K–6 and one separate-district K–8 school. Across the 12 comparable K–6 schools, 2025–2026 averages were 27% proficient in ELA, 20% in math and 16% in science, versus 49%, 38% and 36% statewide. Results vary widely from school to school, but Krystal School of Science Math & Technology is the standout: it was the only Hesperia K–6 school above the state in all three subjects.

Krystal led with 60% in ELA, 53% in math and 46% in science—about 11, 14 and 10 percentage points above state results. Its next-closest Hesperia school trailed by 29 points in ELA, 28 in math and 25 in science. At the other end, Joshua Circle Elementary had the lowest results: 13% in ELA, 7% in math and 5% in science. It was 6 points below the next-lowest school in ELA, 2 below in math and 3 below in science. SchoolDigger ranked Krystal at the 76th statewide percentile and Joshua at the 1st; these are SchoolDigger rankings, not proficiency scores.

Recent trends are mixed: the Hesperia-school average was nearly unchanged in ELA, fell about 1 point in math and gained less than 1 point in science from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while statewide results improved more in every subject. Juniper Elementary had the biggest ELA gain, about 6 points; Krystal gained about 5 in math and 16 in science. Topaz Preparatory Academy fell in all three subjects, including about 6 points in science. As context, 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible figures ranged from 48% at Krystal to 87% at Eucalyptus Elementary; these figures do not explain test results. Desert Trails Preparatory Academy had 2024–2025 results of 35% in ELA, 39% in math and 40% in science, but its K–8 span and different results year make it a separate comparison.
