Summary

Open Charter Magnet is a highly-rated public elementary school (grades K-5) serving 390 students in the Westchester area of Los Angeles, part of the Los Angeles Unified school district.

The school consistently earns a 4-star rating and performs well above state averages in all subjects, with science being a particular strength. It stands out for its ability to deliver excellent academic results for all student groups. Compared to nearby schools, it shows remarkable consistency, avoiding the dramatic year-to-year swings seen at some neighbors like Kentwood Elementary. Furthermore, it achieves these strong outcomes efficiently, spending less per student than some lower-performing schools in the area, such as Westport Heights Elementary.

Key factors in the school's success include a very low chronic absenteeism rate and a pattern where student performance in English and Math improves significantly from 3rd to 5th grade. The school is a magnet program, which attracts a diverse population from across the district. While charter schools like WISH Community and Wilder's Preparatory Academy Charter in the area also perform well, Open Charter Magnet is notable for its high achievement across demographics. The analysis also highlights a stark contrast in performance between schools in different districts, with those in Inglewood Unified generally facing greater challenges.
