Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 92352

Zip code 92352 contains one elementary school, Lake Arrowhead Elementary, serving grades K-5 in the mountain community within the Rim of the World Unified School District.

This school shows a clear pattern of outperforming its district in English, math, and science, with mathematics being a particular relative strength. However, a notable trend is that academic performance is strongest in the early grades, especially third grade, and declines significantly by fifth grade. The school also faces a challenge with chronic student absenteeism, though its rate is better than the district average.

While the school's statewide ranking has slightly declined in recent years, it maintains a middle-of-the-pack position. With over half of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch and a higher-than-ideal student-teacher ratio, the school's ability to outperform its district suggests effective local strategies are in place, but parents may want to inquire about supports for maintaining academic progress into the upper elementary grades and programs to improve consistent attendance.
