The Lucerne Valley Unified School District has had difficulty circa 2015 with financial issues,[4][5] and the 2013 test scores lower than average test scores compared to San Bernardino County schools,.[6] The school district reported a student population of fewer than 800 pupils as of September 2015.[7] In 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic in California, the California Department of Public Health granted the district a permission waiver to open Lucerne Valley Elementary School for hybrid learning. At the time it was the only school in the county to get said permission.[8] The student population in the district increased by 58 in the 2020-2021 school year because some parents liked the district's COVID policies. Ordinarily the State of California would increase funding for the district for adding students, but such money did not come. The superintendent stated that this meant $500,000 fewer dollars.[9] References
