Summary

Community Magnet Charter Elementary is a 425-student K–5 school in Los Angeles, California, serving families in Los Angeles Unified. In 2025–26, proficiency was 89% in English language arts (ELA), 84% in math and 77% in science; chronic absenteeism was 5%, compared with 18% statewide and 23% in the district. The clearest local distinction is its first-place ELA result among the 11 nearby schools, alongside second place in math and third in science.

The school stands out most in ELA: its 89% proficiency was 40 percentage points above the state and 41 points above the district, and 18 points above the nearby-school average of 71%. Math proficiency was 84%, 45 points above the state and 44 above the district; only one nearby school scored higher, and the result was 15 points above the nearby average of 69%. Science was 77%, 41 points above the state and 45 above the district. It ranked third nearby in science, with a 16-point lead over the nearby average of 61%. So, while all three subjects are strong, ELA is the school’s clearest local lead and science its lowest nearby placement.

Results have risen overall since 2022–23: proficiency increased by 11 points in ELA, 7 in math and 8 in science, while the school’s advantage over the state grew in all three subjects. The path was not perfectly steady: math eased from 84.2% in 2024–25 to 83.8% in 2025–26. SchoolDigger ranks the school 48th of 5,804 California schools, in the 99th percentile with five stars, up from the 94th percentile in 2022–23. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 23.6, above the nearby average of 20.4. The school reported 25% free/reduced-lunch eligible in 2024–25. One subgroup result is less aligned with its overall standing: SchoolDigger’s ranking of how well the school serves Asian students was at the 72nd percentile (rank 332 of 1,207), compared with the school’s overall 99th percentile; that subgroup ranking was at the 87th percentile the prior year.
