Established in 1914, Loma Portal Elementary in Point Loma runs K-4 instruction from 3341 Browning Street as San Diego Unified's oldest Point Loma Cluster campus under CDS code 37-68338-6039903. The 110-year-old school sits 0.24 miles from Point Loma High School, anchoring the Chatsworth-Browning corridor's K-through-12 feeder pattern that routes TK-4 graduates upward through Dana and Correia middle schools. Ranked #752 among California elementary schools, the 367-student site posts 67% math and 67% reading proficiency, with 30% of enrollment qualifying as economically disadvantaged under federal reporting. GATE clustering and TK admission pull families across the Loma Portal boundary, with feeder-in early-learning placements running through neighborhood preschools like G3 Kids Point Loma that bridge full-day child care into kindergarten readiness. Navy-housing expansion in 1942 once forced three mid-year reorganizations that swung enrollment from 200 to more than 1,400 students, a historical surge that still shapes the K-4 staffing model on a single self-contained campus footprint bounded by Chatsworth Boulevard, Browning Street, and Plum Street.
