School Overview

Baker Elementary sits in the small desert community of Baker — best known as the gateway to Death Valley and home to the world's tallest thermometer — where the school serves a tight-knit, working-class community along the I-15 corridor. Academics are a real challenge here, with scores placing the school in the lower tier statewide across English, math, and science, so families who prioritize strong academics may want to factor that into their decision. That said, for families rooted in this remote Mojave Desert town, Baker Elementary is the heart of a small community where everyone knows everyone, and the rugged, wide-open landscape has a character all its own.
