Summary

Brentwood Science is a 224-student K–5 elementary school in Los Angeles Unified, serving families in an area with several nearby school alternatives. Its 2025–26 chronic absenteeism rate was 31%, above the district’s 23% and the state’s 18%, and higher than at any nearby school with a reported rate. The sharpest academic warning is fourth grade: Brentwood had the lowest fourth-grade ELA and math results among 11 schools with same-grade data, at 33% and 28%.

Across all grades, Brentwood scored above state and district averages in ELA, math, and science, but below the nearby-school average in all three. Its results were 54% in ELA, 47% in math, and 47% in science, compared with 49%, 38%, and 36% statewide and 48%, 40%, and 32% in Los Angeles Unified. Those results put Brentwood 4, 9, and 11 points above the state, and 5, 7, and 14 points above the district, respectively. Nearby averages were higher—69% in ELA, 65% in math, and 61% in science—leaving Brentwood 16, 18, and 14 points behind. Science is its strongest relative result: it has the largest lead over the district and the smallest gap to the nearby average; math has the largest local gap.

Results have improved over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, Brentwood gained 12 points in ELA, 15 in math, and 23 in science. SchoolDigger placed it at the 68th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up 28 percentile points from 2021–22. In 2024–25, 80% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 18.6, compared with a nearby-school average of 19.5. SchoolDigger’s 2025–26 effectiveness ranking for Hispanic students was at the 86th percentile, 18 points above the school’s overall percentile; that group ranking rose from the 64th percentile in 2023–24. Subgroup rankings are available for different years, so they do not provide a uniform current picture.
