Summary

Emery Park Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 383 students in the generally strong Alhambra Unified district, but it is currently facing significant academic challenges that set it apart from its neighbors.

The school's statewide ranking has fallen sharply in recent years, now placing it in the 46th percentile, which is lower than other nearby Alhambra Unified schools like Park Elementary (74th percentile) and William Northrup Elementary (78th percentile). This decline is especially pronounced for students from low-income families and in subjects like math and science, where proficiency rates are well below the district average. A major concern is chronic absenteeism, with nearly one in five students missing significant school time—a rate double the district average and higher than comparable schools.

Interestingly, Emery Park Elementary spends more per student than some higher-performing peers, raising questions about how resources are used. The school's situation is complex, as it is located very close to Sierra Vista Elementary in Los Angeles Unified, which serves a student population with greater economic need but achieves a much higher 79th percentile ranking. This comparison, along with the stark differences within the Alhambra Unified district itself, suggests that local school practices and climate are critical factors influencing student outcomes at Emery Park.
