Summary:
Eight K–6 elementary schools in ZIP code 92410 are part of San Bernardino City Unified. In 2025–2026, their average proficiency was 33% in ELA, 21% in math and 16% in science—about 16, 17 and 20 percentage points below state results, respectively. The most important finding is that results vary widely from school to school: Captain Leland Norton Elementary leads all three core subjects, while Urbita Elementary is lowest in all three.
Captain Leland Norton stands out with 52% proficient in ELA, 32% in math and 32% in science—about 22, 13 and 17 percentage points above the other seven schools’ averages. Its ELA result is 3 points above the state figure, though its math and science are 6 and 4 points below. At the other end, Urbita has 21% in ELA, 15% in math and 4% in science, falling 28, 23 and 32 points short of state results. Warm Springs Elementary is another bright spot: among the five schools with CSA Spanish results, it leads in overall performance, listening and reading, with 11%, 30% and 15%, respectively; CSA Spanish results were available for five schools.
Results are improving in some areas, but not consistently. The group’s average ELA rose 6 points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, with seven schools improving and Urbita declining 2 points. Average math rose 3 points, while science rose 2 points—less than the state’s 3-point increase; science changes ranged from a 17-point gain at E. Neal Roberts Elementary to a 16-point drop at Urbita. SchoolDigger ranks Captain Leland Norton highest among these schools, at the 54th percentile with 3 stars, and Urbita lowest, at the 5th percentile with 0 stars. For context, seven schools report free/reduced lunch eligible rates for 2024–2025, ranging from 92% at Urbita to 97% at Lytle Creek; Juanita Blakely Jones Elementary instead reports 68% directly certified for free meals that year and is likely a Community Eligibility school, so its measure is different. Chronic absenteeism also merits attention: every school exceeds the state’s 18% rate, ranging from 26% at E. Neal Roberts to 39% at Monterey.
