Summary

Chatsworth Park Elementary School Urban Planning/Community Development Magnet is a public K-5 school serving 422 students in the Los Angeles Unified district, standing out for its strong academic results while serving a community with significant economic need.

The school's specialized magnet program in urban planning and community development correlates with excellent performance, particularly in science, where it far exceeds district averages. It achieves these results cost-effectively, spending less per student than several nearby schools like Limerick Avenue Elementary and Nevada Avenue Elementary. While schools such as Porter Ranch Community have higher overall rankings, they serve far fewer economically disadvantaged students, making Chatsworth Park's success especially notable.

Parents should note the school's impressive, decade-long improvement trend and its effectiveness in supporting student attendance. Areas for growth include addressing a performance gap between male and female students and strengthening math skills in the upper grades. Compared to schools with similar student demographics, like Germain Academy For Academic Achievement, Chatsworth Park Elementary School Urban Planning/Community Development Magnet is a standout performer and a model of what a focused magnet program can achieve.

Monday, March 14, 2016

This school will not be my first choice to send my child, or even my last. This school has too many bullies, and nothing is ever done about it. The after school program has 85 children to 1 adult, very unsafe. Not enough eyes to keep watch on the kids. I'm offended how the principle handles confrontations, I received a letter that I basically verbally abused a child when in fact I went to the school to confront the coach after school and the little girl approached me and started to bad mouth me AND get in my face. After yelling at her, and yelling to go get her mother the confrontation escalated. The mother did absolutely NOTHING to her daughter about why she bullied my niece and how disrespectful she was yelling at an adult. And to top it off the school was more concerned about sending me a letter about my behavior instead of caring why I was so upset that my niece was being BULLIED by this little girl and her friend!!! Since when was it okay to allow bulling? and when will it stop!!! we need more proactive teachers and staff, and parent cooperation. Close Quote
