Somis Union

Somis Union is a small school district in California that serves the community of Somis. The district has just one school, Somis Elementary, which educates students from kindergarten through 8th grade. With a total enrollment of 240 students, Somis Elementary is a relatively strong-performing school, ranking in the top 28% of California elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year.

Somis Elementary has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years, indicating above-average performance. The school's test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics are generally higher than the Somis Union district and state averages, particularly in 5th and 7th grade. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 15.8% in 2022-2023 is slightly higher than the state average, and 75.83% of its students receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

While Somis Elementary is a strong-performing school overall, there are a few areas where its performance lags behind the state, such as 3rd grade ELA and 8th grade Math and Science. Addressing these gaps could help the school further improve its academic outcomes. Additionally, the school's demographics and socioeconomic factors should be considered when evaluating its performance and identifying strategies for continued growth and success.
