Summary

Intensive Learning Center is a K–6 elementary school in Lakewood, California, with 646 students and part of Bellflower Unified. In 2025–2026, its ELA, Mathematics, and Science results were all above both district and state levels. The most important finding for families is that the school outperformed both benchmarks in every reported subject.

ELA is the school’s clearest strength compared with nearby schools: its 59% result was second-highest among the 11 schools, and 12 points above the nearby-school average of 47%. Mathematics and Science each ranked fifth; their results of 49% and 44% were 7 and 10 points above nearby averages, respectively. The school also exceeded Bellflower Unified and California in every subject. Mathematics had the largest advantages over the district and state—19 and 10 points—while Science had the smallest lead over the state, at 8 points.

Results improved between 2022–2023 and 2025–2026: ELA rose 5 points, Mathematics 7, and Science 3, though results fluctuated between those years. The school’s lead over the state grew in ELA and Mathematics but narrowed in Science. SchoolDigger gave the school a 72nd-percentile statewide rank and four stars in 2025–2026; its rank was tied with Riley Elementary and just below Madison Elementary and Holmes Elementary. In 2024–2025, its student-teacher ratio was 22.2, and 62% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves African American Students was at the 82nd percentile in 2024–2025, compared with its overall 63rd-percentile standing that year. For Hispanic Students, the school ranked at the 87th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with its overall 72nd-percentile rank.
