Summary

Audubon Middle serves 446 students in grades 6–8 in Los Angeles, within Los Angeles Unified. Its clearest concern is chronic absenteeism: in 2025–2026, 37% of students were chronically absent, compared with 23% districtwide and 18% statewide. Although the rate fell from 51% in 2021–2022, it remained higher than at each of the four nearby district middle schools with current-year data.

Audubon’s strongest local results are in ELA and science, while math is less distinctive. In 2025–2026, it ranked second among five nearby district middle schools in both ELA and science, and third in math. Its ELA proficiency was 36%—9 percentage points above the nearby-school average—but below the district’s 48% and the state’s 49%. Science proficiency was 17%, 3 points above the nearby average, but below the district’s 32% and state’s 36%. Math proficiency was 18%, essentially matching the nearby average, while trailing the district’s 40% and state’s 38%. In ELA, Audubon placed behind Pio Pico Middle and ahead of the other three nearby district schools.

Results have improved across all three subjects: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, proficiency rose by 23 points in ELA, 14 in math and 16 in science, though scores remain below district and state levels. SchoolDigger places Audubon at the 26th statewide percentile in 2025–2026, with one star; that is up from the 2nd percentile in 2022–2023. Its latest reported student–teacher ratio was 13.1:1 in 2024–2025, and 93% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch that year. One notable group result: SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile for African American students was 52 in 2025–2026, compared with 26 overall, indicating stronger relative standing in how well the school serves that group.
