Ansgar Larsen Elementary

Ansgar Larsen Elementary sits in the Port Hueneme area of Oxnard, a working-class coastal community in Ventura County where families tend to put down deep roots. The school serves a predominantly Latino population and, like many schools in the Hueneme Elementary District, faces real academic challenges — scoring in the lower tiers statewide in English and Math. Families drawn here are often those already embedded in the neighborhood, and the school may be a good fit for those looking to stay connected to a tight-knit community while advocating closely for their children's academic support and enrichment.
