Johnson Elementary

Johnson Elementary sits in the Encanto neighborhood of southeastern San Diego, a tight-knit, working-class community with deep roots and a strong sense of local pride. The school shows some real bright spots — particularly in science, where students perform notably better than in other subjects — and families who are engaged and looking to get involved may find a community that genuinely welcomes that energy. Encanto is an area in the midst of slow but steady change, and for families committed to their neighborhood school, Johnson can be a place where that investment makes a real difference.
