Summary:

ZIP code 93501 has one elementary school, Mojave Elementary, serving grades K–5 and enrolling 420 students. In 2025–26, 11% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 7% in math, and 8% in science. The clearest takeaway is that the school’s results were below state rates in every subject, by 38 percentage points in ELA, 31 points in math, and 28 points in science.

Mojave Elementary is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in this ZIP-code list because it is the only school represented, so there is no local school-to-school comparison. It also fell below Mojave Unified in all three subjects: by 11 points in ELA, 4 points in math, and 5 points in science. Science was closest to the state benchmark, even though the school’s science proficiency rate was lower than its ELA rate. In grades 3–5, grade 3 had the strongest results in both ELA and math: 16% in ELA and 14% in math. All reported grade-level results were below the matching state rates.

Results moved in different directions from 2024–25 to 2025–26: ELA fell by 3 percentage points, while math and science each rose by about 1 point. Those changes did not close the state gaps. SchoolDigger ranked Mojave Elementary 5,760th of 5,804 schools statewide in 2025–26, near the bottom of its ranking. Other context: its student–teacher ratio was 22:1 in 2024–25, and 91% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. Chronic absenteeism was 51% in 2025–26, compared with 50% districtwide and 18% statewide. These figures describe the school and its context; they do not establish what caused its test results.
