School Overview

Las Flores Elementary sits in Ridgecrest, a high-desert community in Kern County that's home to a large number of military and civilian families tied to the nearby Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake — so the school is well-practiced at welcoming new students and helping families get settled quickly. Academically, it performs solidly above the midpoint statewide, with math and science being particular strengths, which fits well with a community that skews toward technical and engineering professions. Families looking for a stable, community-minded school in an affordable desert city where the mountains are always in view will find a lot to like here.
