Arroyo Elementary

Arroyo Elementary sits in the heart of Pomona, a working-class city in the eastern San Gabriel Valley with a tight-knit, predominantly Latino community and a strong sense of local pride. The school faces real academic challenges, with scores that reflect the broader struggles of Pomona Unified, making it a better fit for families who are prepared to supplement learning at home and stay closely involved in their child's education. For families already rooted in the neighborhood, Arroyo can still offer a familiar, community-connected environment — but those prioritizing academic outcomes may want to explore other options within or beyond the district.
