Summary:
Elementary schools in ZIP code 92405 include six schools in the San Bernardino City Unified district: one serves kindergarten through grade 5, and five serve kindergarten through grade 6. Across the schools, average 2025–2026 proficiency was 32% in English language arts (ELA), 22% in math and 21% in science, compared with statewide results of 49%, 38% and 36%. That puts the local averages 18, 16 and 15 percentage points below the state, respectively. The most important finding is that no school meets the state result in ELA or math, while only Arrowhead Elementary comes close in science.
Riley Elementary and Marshall Elementary tie for the top all-grade ELA result at 36%, about 7 points above the other four schools’ average. Riley leads math at 30%, 10 points above the other schools’ average. Arrowhead stands out in science at 34%—16 points above the other schools’ average and just 2 points below the state—but its ELA and math are not local leaders. At the other end, Lincoln Elementary has the lowest results in all three subjects: 22% in ELA, 14% in math and 10% in science. Those results are 11, 10 and 14 points below the other schools’ averages, respectively.
Results improved on average from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA rose 2 points, math 3 and science 7, bringing the group closer to state results in each subject. Progress varied: Davidson Elementary fell in ELA and math, and Riley fell in math, while George Brown Junior Elementary improved in all three. SchoolDigger ranks Riley at the 35th percentile and Marshall at the 30th, compared with Lincoln at the 5th and Davidson at the 16th. Lincoln has the lowest student-teacher ratio, 18.9, yet the lowest core results; ratios across the schools range up to 22.1. Five schools report free/reduced lunch eligibility for 92%–97% of students in school year 2024–2025, while Lincoln reports that 72% are directly certified for free meals in the same year; these are different measures and are not directly comparable.
