Summary

Burbank (Luther) Elementary serves 421 students in grades K–6 in Artesia, California. Its 2025–26 results were near the state level in English language arts (ELA) and science, but below the district in all three tested subjects. The clearest concern is math: Burbank ranked ninth among 11 nearby schools, and its proficiency was well below both the state and district.

Compared with nearby schools, Burbank was around the middle in ELA and science but near the bottom in math: it ranked sixth in ELA, ninth in math and sixth in science. ELA proficiency was 48%, close to 49% statewide but below the 64% in ABC Unified. Science was 34%, versus 36% statewide and 49% in the district. Math was 32%, below the state’s 38% and the district’s 53%. The grade-level pattern reinforces the concern: fourth-grade math proficiency was 25%, the lowest among nearby schools, and Burbank was below the state in math in grades 3–5. A brighter spot is upper-grade ELA: Burbank’s fifth- and sixth-grade results exceeded state benchmarks.

Results have weakened since 2022–23: ELA fell 6 percentage points and math fell 8, while science rose 1. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile dropped from 67 in 2023–24 to 52 in 2025–26, when it gave the school 3 stars. SchoolDigger’s student-group rankings show differences from the overall result: the school ranked at the 22nd percentile for Asian students and the 70th percentile for special education students, compared with the 52nd percentile overall. The student-teacher ratio was 25.5 in 2024–25, the second-highest among nearby schools. The school reported 67% free/reduced lunch eligible that year; California provides free school meals statewide, so this is the school’s reported eligibility measure.
