Summary

Los Angeles Leadership Primary Academy is a public elementary school serving 265 students in grades K-5 at 2670 Griffin Ave. in Los Angeles, operating within its own Los Angeles Leadership Primary Academy District.

The school shows a promising upward trend, recently improving to a 2-star rating after two years at 1 star, and has achieved a dramatic reduction in chronic absenteeism, now at 16.7%, which is better than the state average. While overall test scores in English and Math are below state averages, the school demonstrates particular strength in supporting English Language Learner students, ranking in the 67th percentile for this group. It also spends significantly less per student ($23,922) than most neighboring schools in the Los Angeles Unified district, yet its math scores outperform several nearby schools like Loreto Street Elementary and Huntington Drive Elementary.

Performance varies by grade, with 3rd grade math exceeding the state average but 5th grade falling below. A notable comparison is with the nearby PUC Milagro Charter, which has a similar student population but achieves much higher academic results, raising questions about different educational models. The school's recent progress in attendance and its effective support for specific student subgroups are positive signs for families considering this community-focused academy.
