Loma Verde Elementary School in Chula Vista operates as a preschool-through-sixth-grade Community School on Loma Lane, serving families in the southwestern residential zone of the Chula Vista Elementary School District.

The LEAD after-school enrichment program provides STEM, music, sports, and language clubs, and students access additional academic resources at the Learning Resource Center and Library within the wider Chula Vista system. Garden-based learning units cycle students through seasonal soil composition testing, seed germination tracking, and harvest-weight data collection, mapped to Next Generation Science Standards life science and earth science disciplinary core ideas at each elementary grade band.
