Summary

Workman Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 347 students in La Puente, part of the Hacienda la Puente Unified School District, that has shown a steady decade-long improvement in its statewide ranking.

The school stands out for its strong academic results, particularly in mathematics where student proficiency significantly exceeds both district and state averages. This is notable because Workman Elementary serves a community with high economic need and performs much better than several nearby schools with similar student populations, such as Sparks Elementary and Wing Lane Elementary. The school has also been especially effective in supporting Hispanic students, students from low-income families, and students in special education, with these groups achieving rankings in the 76th to 79th percentiles statewide.

Areas for attention include science, where proficiency is less than half the state average, and support for English Language Learners, which has declined in recent years. While chronic absenteeism has improved, it remains higher than the district average. A notable comparison in the area is Wedgeworth Elementary, which achieves exceptional scores but serves a student population with considerably lower economic need, highlighting the challenging context in which Workman operates and succeeds.
