Summary:
Panorama City, California, served by the Los Angeles Unified district, has 11 public schools including eight elementary schools, one middle school, and two high schools, all serving a community with very high economic need.
Among elementary schools, Panorama City Elementary stands out as the highest performer with exceptional math scores and remarkably low chronic absenteeism, followed closely by Alta California Elementary. In contrast, Burton Street Elementary ranks much lower academically despite having the highest per-student spending in the area. The lone middle school, Vista Middle, shows improvement but has below-average test scores.
The two high schools present a stark contrast: Panorama High has a solid graduation rate and near-average test proficiency, while Cal Burke High faces significant challenges with very low graduation rates, extremely high chronic absenteeism, and the lowest test scores in the city. Overall, academic performance tends to decline in secondary grades, and science proficiency is an area of need across all schools.
