District-Level NCES Analysis
Hueneme Elementary operates 11 public schools serving 7,140 students, placing it among the smaller districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 9 elementary, 2 middle schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Ventura County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $20,454 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 1880 California districts by per-pupil spending. See how California compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 16.0% local, 69.4% state, and 14.6% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 77/100, ranked #134 of 1526 in California against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 474.7:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 34.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 85.3% Hispanic or Latino, 8.1% White, 3.1% Asian across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Hollywood Beach Elementary, with a diversity index of 63.5/100.
Its largest campus is Charles Blackstock Junior High, enrolling 1,239 students (19% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Hollywood Beach Elementary, at 289 students, a 4x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Charles Blackstock Junior High accounts for 17.4% of all Hueneme Elementary student enrollment
That concentration means Hueneme Elementary-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: middle. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Hueneme Elementary school enrollment varies 4.3× across entities
Hueneme Elementary school enrollment ranges from 289 students (lowest) to 1,239 students (highest), a spread of 950 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share sits between 62.5% and 75%, above a simple majority but below the highest descriptive band used here. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Hueneme Elementary student-counselor ratio is 475:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Hueneme Elementary chronic absenteeism rate is 34.8% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
