Summary

Citizens of the World Charter School West Valley is a 409-student, K–8 school in Winnetka, in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley. Its 2025–26 results show strong local performance in science and math, but a serious concern in English language arts (ELA): proficiency fell from 80% in 2022–23 to 45% in 2025–26, moving from well above the state to 4 points below it.

The school is strongest locally in science and near the top in math, while ELA is its weakest subject relative to the state. Among nearby schools with current results, it ranked first of nine in science (41%, compared with a nearby average of 27%) and second in math (45%, versus 36%); Stanley Mosk Elementary narrowly led in math, at 46%. ELA was 45%, above the nearby average of 40%, but below the state’s 49%. Math and science were above state results of 38% and 36%, respectively. The school’s own district, Citizens of the World Charter School West Valley District, has no supplied achievement averages, so a comparison with its district is unavailable.

Scores have declined in all three subjects: since 2022–23, math fell 22 percentage points and science fell 27 points in the two years available, while ELA dropped 36 points. SchoolDigger gives the school a 60th-percentile ranking and 3 stars for 2025–26; its percentile was 73 in 2023–24. Its statewide ranking for Hispanic students fell from the 75th percentile in 2023–24 to the 41st in 2025–26, below the school’s overall standing; for White students, it was at the 31st percentile. These rankings describe the school’s standing for each group, not the students themselves. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 23.9, the highest among nearby schools with reported figures, compared with their 20.0 average. The school reported 43% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, below the 89% average among nearby schools reporting that same measure and year.
