Summary

Cedarlane Academy is a K-8 elementary school serving 878 students in the Hacienda la Puente Unified district, demonstrating consistent improvement and strong academic outcomes for its community in Hacienda Heights.

The school is a standout for achieving above-average test scores in English and Math while serving a student population with significant economic need, outperforming nearby schools with similar demographics like Palm Elementary and Kwis Elementary. Cedarlane excels in two key areas: supporting English Language Learners, where it ranks among the top schools in the state, and managing student attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate much lower than the district and state averages. This effective support has contributed to a steady rise in its statewide ranking over the past decade.

While Cedarlane holds its own in a neighborhood with very high-performing schools like Wedgeworth Elementary and Mesa Robles, it has identified areas for growth, particularly in science instruction. The school also shows interesting trends, such as stronger academic performance in the middle school grades and a notable post-pandemic recovery in student attendance. Overall, Cedarlane Academy represents a solid, improving choice within the district, effectively using its resources to support student success.
