Pomo Elementary School

What Pomo Elementary School does

Pomo Elementary School (also referred to as Pomo School) is a public Transitional Kindergarten through 6th grade elementary school operating as a campus of the Konocti Unified School District (KUSD), a California government entity headquartered in Lower Lake, CA. The school serves families across the Clearlake, Clearlake Oaks, Lower Lake, Spring Valley, and Cobb Mountain communities of Lake County, and is one of four elementary feeders within a district network that also includes Obsidian Middle School, Lower Lake High School, and the Konocti Alternative Education program, enrolling roughly 4,014 students district-wide (with a noted alternative figure of 4,002 cited on the New Families page).

Pomo's operating model is that of a public school district campus. Education delivery rests on a standardized district technology stack: Aeries for the Student Information System and online enrollment (operable from home or a family kiosk at the district office at 9565 Winchester St., Lower Lake), ClassLink for single sign-on to educational applications, ParentSquare for multilingual district communication, and Stopfinder for real-time bus tracking across a fleet of 16 large buses, 10 special-education buses (8 wheelchair-capable), and 9 vans. Programs offered through Pomo include core academics, athletics, the Associated Student Body, career and college readiness activities, and — for secondary students across the district — Career Technical Education pathways (47.5% district enrollment), English Language Learner services, and Future Farmers of America. Compliance posture is documented across COPPA, FERPA, ADA / Section 504, Title II, and a W3C WAI WCAG 2.0 Level AA commitment targeted to May 31, 2024.

Revenue mechanics reflect a public funding formula rather than a commercial model. KUSD is funded through California's Local Control Funding Formula based on Average Daily Attendance, supplemented by local property taxes, federal Title I, Title IX, and Special Education grants, and categorical CTE funding; no tuition is charged. Family-facing distribution mixes self-serve online enrollment with direct site enrollment routed through the Student Services Department and physical kiosk access. Pomo's value proposition combines comprehensive TK-6 instruction with wraparound services — mental health, nutrition, transportation, special education, and after-school programming — and a role as a community gathering space in Lake County's rural communities.
