Summary

One Hundred Twelfth Street Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 319 students in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles, part of the Los Angeles Unified school district, and it stands out for its remarkable and steady academic improvement over the last several years.

While the school's overall test scores are still catching up to district and state averages, its journey from being one of the lowest-ranked schools in California to now ranking above one-third of all state schools is a significant achievement. This positive trend is especially notable when compared to some nearby schools, like Grape Street Elementary or Lovelia P. Flournoy Elementary, which have seen declines or remain in the bottom percentiles. The school also shows exceptional strength in supporting specific groups of students, with performance rankings for English Language Learners and African American students that are notably high and have improved dramatically.

The school invests more per student than its neighbors, which appears to coincide with its upward trajectory, though it continues to face a challenge with student attendance that is higher than average. Interestingly, another local school, One Hundred Twenty-Second Street Elementary, achieves high performance with lower spending but has an excellent attendance rate, suggesting that improving attendance could unlock further gains. For parents, the story of One Hundred Twelfth Street Elementary is one of a school on a clear and committed path of growth, demonstrating that strong support and effective teaching can lead to meaningful progress.
