Summary:

Los Alamitos Unified has nine schools—six elementary, two middle and one high school—serving students from elementary through high school. In 2025–26, the state’s all-grades proficiency figures were 49% in English language arts (ELA), 38% in math and 36% in science. Every school in the district scored above the state in all three subjects, though results vary notably among schools serving the same grade span.

Jack L. Weaver Elementary is the clearest elementary standout, with 90% proficient in ELA, 92% in math and 80% in science—leading the average of the other five elementary schools by 14, 18 and 15 percentage points, respectively. Richard Henry Lee Elementary ranks second among elementary schools in all three subjects, at 86%, 89% and 75%. At the lower end, Los Alamitos Elementary has the lowest elementary ELA and math scores, 67% and 61%; J. H. McGaugh Elementary has the lowest elementary science score, 51%. Among middle schools, Oak Middle leads Sharon Christa McAuliffe Middle by 8 points in ELA, 3 in math and 22 in science. Los Alamitos High scores 81% in ELA and 56% in science, but there is no other high school in this list for comparison.

Across the nine schools, average scores rose about 1 point in ELA, 3 in math and 7 in science from 2024–25 to 2025–26; state scores rose about 0, 1 and 3 points. The overall improvement masks exceptions: Los Alamitos Elementary declined in all three subjects, and Rossmoor Elementary declined in math. SchoolDigger’s rankings also tell a mixed story: Weaver moved from 14th to 22nd statewide, while Lee improved from 138th to 44th. Context measures do not sort neatly with scores: Weaver’s student-teacher ratio is 26.0 and its free/reduced-lunch-eligible share was 10% in 2024–25; Los Alamitos Elementary’s ratio is 24.0 and its share was 32%. The share is an observation, not an explanation for results. Because the high school has no same-level peer here, comparisons within elementary and middle school are fairest.
