Summary

Beckford Charter for Enriched Studies serves 588 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Northridge, in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles. In 2025–26, students’ proficiency was 85% in English language arts, 84% in math and 74% in science—well above both California and Los Angeles Unified. Beckford also outperformed all eight nearby Los Angeles Unified elementary schools with results for the same year in each subject, making it the clear local test-score leader.

Beckford’s advantages over the state were 36 percentage points in English language arts, 45 in math and 38 in science; its advantages over the district were 37, 44 and 42 points, respectively. Compared with the next-highest nearby school, Castlebay Lane Charter, Beckford led by 13 points in English language arts, 12 in math and 7 in science. Science is its strongest result relative to the nearby-school average, where its lead was 32 points. Grade 4 math is a relative dip for Beckford, at 80%, but it still led nearby schools by 2 points over Topeka Charter School for Advanced Studies.

Science achievement has risen notably, from 57% in 2022–23 to 74% in 2025–26, and Beckford’s lead over the state in science widened by 12 points. English language arts and math also improved, though their leads over the state narrowed slightly. Chronic absenteeism fell from 11% in 2021–22 to 4% in 2025–26, below the district rate of 23% and state rate of 18%. SchoolDigger ranks Beckford 86th of 5,804 California schools, at the 99th percentile with five stars—the highest local percentile among nearby schools with current ranking data. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio of 24.5 was the highest among nine nearby schools. In 2024–25, 30% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the second-lowest share in that group. One subgroup stands out in SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves students: multi-racial students ranked at the 68th percentile in 2025–26, below Beckford’s overall 99th percentile, though still above the statewide midpoint.
