Summary

Leuzinger High in Lawndale, California, serves 1,981 students in grades 9–12 in the Centinela Valley Union High district. Its results are uneven: English language arts (ELA) is a local and statewide strength, while math proficiency remains low and science is the clearest academic concern compared with the state.

ELA is Leuzinger’s strongest subject: 61% of students were proficient in 2025–26, above the state’s 49% and district’s 50%. It led nearby schools including Lawndale High, Centinela Valley Independent Study, R. K. Lloyde High and Hawthorne High; only Hawthorne Math and Science Academy scored higher among nearby schools with reported results. Leuzinger also led nearby Centinela Valley peers in math, with 24% proficient, but remained 14 points below the state’s 38%. Science proficiency was 15%, 21 points below the state and slightly below the district; it trailed several nearby schools, including Hawthorne High and Lawndale High.

Scores rose from 2022–23 to 2025–26: ELA increased from 53% to 61%, math from 17% to 24%, and science from 10% to 15%. The math shortfall to the state narrowed from 18 points to 14, while the science gap widened from 20 to 21 points. SchoolDigger gives Leuzinger a 2-star rating and places it at the 44th percentile statewide for 2025–26. Its student–teacher ratio was 22.1 in 2024–25, and 83% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s 2023–24 ranking for English Language Learner Students was at the 72nd percentile, compared with the school’s overall 51st percentile—one notably stronger measure of how well it serves that group. Its Multi-racial Students ranking fell from the 40th percentile in 2022–23 to the 20th in 2025–26, while its overall ranking moved from the 49th to the 44th percentile.
