California is CDE’s statewide math row for each grade, counting every student tested there; the comparisons in the chapters combine these rows for their grades, weighted by students tested (our calculation).

A grade the school doesn't teach has no row. “Suppressed” marks a result CDE blanks because fewer than 11 students tested (CDE’s reporting rule); “none tested” marks a grade CDE lists with no students tested; “not on file” marks a result missing from the records we hold. None of them means zero.

Have results changed?

There’s no spring 2025 result to compare with spring 2026: fewer than 11 students tested here that year, so CDE withheld it.

Did students here score above what the state expected?

In English, yes; in math, below what the state expected. California sets an expected score for each student from that student’s own score the year before. In 2025, students here in grade 5 scored +7 points against that expected score in English, which the state calls Accelerated. In math, they scored −14 points, which it calls Moderate.

How the state’s growth measure worksPoints above or below what the state expected from the same students’ earlier scores

California uses each student’s English and math scores from the year before to set an expected score, based on how students with similar earlier scores did across the state. Zero would mean students here scored as expected. In English they scored 7 points above that expected score, and in math 14 points below it.

The state sorts every school’s growth result into five growth levels, from Minimal to Exceptional.

Here, as at most schools, the state’s figure blends the two most recent years, so it moves more slowly than one year’s scores.

Life at school

How often do students miss school or get suspended?

20 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26.

State attendance and suspension records, 2025–26

That means they missed 10% or more of school days. 0 of 62 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26, against 1.6% at the average California elementary school.

About the survey and these figuresWho answers, what we show, and how a theme figure is made

Los Angeles Unified School District, School Experience Survey 2025–26 (researcher file). Students in grades 4–12 take it; some questions go only to older grades.

LAUSD publishes no minimum number of answers. We show a question only when at least 20 people answered it, and a group only when at least 10% of it responded, so the answers speak for more than the few who chose to reply.

Fewer than 20 people answered each student question here, so those answers aren’t shown.

Each row shows the percentage its label describes. For a theme, such as one marked “average of 5 questions”, we average the percentages for its questions, the way LAUSD averages its own topics. Each lane lists every question with its own percentage.

Index is where the school's value sits among the California elementary schools we score, from 0 to 100, where 50 is their average; it is not a percentile. School values are from 2025–26. Chronic absence and suspension are CDE's all-students school rates; the score uses an adjusted version of each that pulls small schools toward the average, so their index can sit nearer 50 than the rate suggests. The weights above add to 75%: the remaining 25%, for measures with no value here, is shared out among the measures above.

Current 2025–26 grade results are under Academic achievement, in Results for each grade. “Students with scores” counts the students tested in that grade, subject and year. A missing result is not zero, and each year’s row is a different group of children.

CDE reports scale-score points against the state’s expected score — not a percentage or percentile. The table keeps the group records SchoolScope imported for this school, including rows below our narrative display threshold. Muted rows have fewer than 30 students with a valid growth score. SchoolScope uses that threshold for the shorter narrative view; the reported values stay visible here. “Not categorized” means this imported CDE row has a growth value without a performance category. At least one estimate here is a CDE weighted estimate; that describes how CDE combines years, not a year-over-year trend. A group absent from this table has no imported record shown here. Its absence alone does not establish its size or performance. CDE growth covers grades 4–8; here that is grade 5. SchoolScope does not use these CDE figures in its Scope Score.

Source notes. CDE reports scale-score points against the state’s expected score for matched students, never a percentage. Among SchoolScope's retained California elementary school records, the median English estimate is +2 and the middle half fall between −5 and +9 scale-score points — the spread is wide, so read the figure against it, not its sign alone. CDE's 2025 Dashboard weighted school estimate uses assessments from 2022–23, 2023–24, and 2024–25; adjacent reporting editions should not be read as independent annual changes. The CDE measure covers grades 4–8; here that is grade 5, and it is not part of the Scope Score.

How the California mean was selected

SchoolScope starts with its selected California finance records, not every NCES California district. For FY 2020–21, it calculates an unweighted mean of NCES F-33 current expense per pupil. District records contribute once, regardless of enrollment. The calculation keeps records with positive per-pupil current expense, enrollment over 100, CCD agency type 1, and a recorded district name; it excludes names ending in County Office of Education, Department of Education, or Superintendent of Schools. This is a SchoolScope calculation, not a state-published spending average.

These shares are our arithmetic: each group’s dollars divided by the $10,915,063,400 total of the groups shown, rounded to whole percents by largest remainder so they add up to 100. Dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar, so they can differ from the total by a dollar. SchoolScope groups district-level CDE SACS UserGL actuals from Fund 01, using operating objects 1000–5999 and excluding retiree benefits, food and community services, facilities acquisition, other outgo, and nonagency goals. These shares use that filtered total; they do not exactly break down CDE's official current expense per ADA above. The school-level ESSA figure uses a separate source.
