School Overview

Boron is a small Mojave Desert community best known for its massive open-pit borax mine, and West Boron Elementary serves the tight-knit families who call this remote corner of Kern County home. The school faces real academic challenges, with test scores that rank among the lower end statewide, so families who prioritize academics may want to explore additional support resources or tutoring options. That said, for families already rooted in Boron — whether through work at the mine or Edwards Air Force Base nearby — this is the neighborhood school at the center of a genuinely close community where everyone knows each other.
