What the reported data says about Webster Elementary
Webster Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades KG–05 in Long Beach. It is one of 81 current school records connected to Long Beach Unified. NCES reports 454 students for 2024–25.
Among 5,929 elementary schools in California with comparable records, this school is close in size than the reported median of 455 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 50th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 21.6:1, close to the California median of 22.4:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are Hispanic or Latino (69.8%) and Black (17.4%). English learners represent 24.2% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 13.9%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
