Summary

Del Aire Elementary is a well-regarded K-5 public school serving 612 students in the Wiseburn Unified School District in Hawthorne, consistently performing above the state average.

The school stands out in the area for its strong academic results and exceptional student attendance. In English and Math, Del Aire's proficiency rates are significantly higher than those of many neighboring schools in the Hawthorne and Lennox districts, such as Eucalyptus and Moffett Elementary. Furthermore, its chronic absenteeism rate is remarkably low at just 7.2%, less than half the rate of many nearby schools. It's important to note that Del Aire and its district-mate, Aviation Elementary, both outperform schools in the surrounding districts, highlighting the strength of the Wiseburn district as a whole.

Del Aire is particularly effective in supporting diverse student groups, with African American, Hispanic, and students in special education all scoring in high percentiles statewide. The school achieves these strong outcomes efficiently, spending less per student than several neighboring schools with lower test scores. A point for parents to consider is that while third-grade scores are very high, performance tends to dip in the upper elementary grades, which the school may be working to address. Overall, Del Aire Elementary is a stable, high-performing choice with a strong track record of student success.
