Elementary Schools in Oxnard

Summary:

The Oxnard school district in California contains 17 elementary schools serving grades K-8, with student populations ranging from around 500 to over 1,000. While the district as a whole is ranked 1236 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, a few standout schools are performing better than the others.

Juan Lagunas Soria Elementary is the highest-ranking school, placing 2240 out of 5862 California elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating. It has the strongest test scores across English Language Arts, Math, and Science compared to the other Oxnard schools. Thurgood Marshall Elementary and Norman R. Brekke Elementary also stand out as high-performing 3-star schools in the district.

However, the data reveals significant disparities in performance across the Oxnard elementary schools. Many struggle with very low test scores, high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 18.8% to 39.0%, and high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, often above 90%. Addressing these systemic challenges, such as the correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, will be crucial for the Oxnard school district to improve educational outcomes for all students.
