Summary

Scholarship Prep - South Bay is a K–8 school serving 421 students in Wilmington, in the Los Angeles area. Its 2025–2026 all-grades results were 36% proficient in English language arts (ELA), 24% in math, and 24% in science, below the state and district in all three subjects. The most important concern is math: the school had the lowest math result among the 11 nearby schools.

Science is the school’s strongest subject relative to nearby schools, while math is its weakest. Its science result was 3 percentage points below the nearby-school average, compared with gaps of 9 points in ELA and 20 points in math; it ranked sixth of 11 schools in science and fourth-lowest in ELA. The results were also below the state in ELA, math, and science by 13, 15, and 12 points, respectively, and below the Los Angeles Unified results by 13, 16, and 8 points. Some grade-level ELA results were more encouraging: fourth grade was just above the state result, at 46% versus 46%, and eighth grade was 50% versus 49%. Math, however, was below every nearby school reporting the same grade from third through eighth grade.

Results have improved over the longer term: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA rose 8 points, math 10 points, and science 12 points, though ELA slipped in the latest year. SchoolDigger’s overall rating rose from 1 star and the 13th percentile in 2021–2022 to 2 stars and the 33rd percentile in 2025–2026, but the school remains near the bottom of its local group. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for special education students is a notable bright spot: the school ranked in the 84th percentile, compared with the 33rd percentile overall. In 2024–2025, the school had 24.7 students per teacher, the highest ratio among nearby schools, and 92% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. These figures give context for comparing schools, but do not explain the test results.
