Summary:
ZIP code 93545 has one listed elementary school, Lo-Inyo Elementary, serving kindergarten through grade 8 with 197 students. In 2025–26, its math result was close to California’s, at 37.6% compared with 38.4%, while ELA was 6 points below the state and science was 12 points below. The most important takeaway is that results differ sharply by subject: math is near the state level, but science is the clearest area of concern.
Because Lo-Inyo is the only school in the ZIP-code list, there is no local school leader or trailer to compare. Within the school, fifth-grade ELA stands out: 61% met the standard, 12 points above the state’s 49%; fourth- and seventh-grade ELA were much lower, at 24% and 27%, respectively, versus state results of 46% and 51%. Math was above the state result in grades 6–8, including 44% in grade 6 versus 37% statewide, but below it in grades 3–5. Eighth-grade science is a particular concern: 18% met the standard, 18 points below the state.
Recent trends are mixed: from 2024–25 to 2025–26, Lo-Inyo’s ELA rose 7 percentage points and math rose 5, bringing its state gaps 6 and 3 points closer, while science fell 8 points and its state gap widened by 11. SchoolDigger’s ranking rose from the 34th percentile in 2023–24 to the 50th in 2025–26, and its rating increased from 2 to 3 stars, even as science declined. Context measures include a student-teacher ratio of 16.4 in 2024–25 and a reported free/reduced lunch eligible measure of 59% that school year; the latter should be considered alongside California’s statewide free-meal context. The list has only one school, and grade-specific test results are provided only for 2025–26.
