Summary

Hillery T. Broadous Elementary is a K–5 school in Pacoima, serving 343 students in Los Angeles Unified. SchoolDigger ranks it at the 42nd percentile statewide (3,393rd of 5,804 schools) and gives it 2 stars, while the district is at the 54th percentile and has 3 stars. The most important takeaway is that Broadous’s 2025–2026 proficiency rates remained below both state and district levels in ELA, math, and science, even as results improved substantially over the previous two years.

Broadous’s strongest subject in nearby comparisons is science: its 31% proficiency rate was second among the eight schools with results, 7 percentage points above the nearby-school average of 24% and 5 points below the state. Its weakest area is ELA: 37% were proficient, compared with 49% statewide and 48% in the district. Math was 34%, 4 points below the state and 6 below the district. Grade-level results vary: third-grade math was 24%, the lowest among the eight local schools and 23 points below the state, while fourth-grade math was 44%, 2 points above the state and second locally, behind Harding Street Elementary.

Results and attendance have improved. From 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, proficiency rose 11 percentage points in ELA, 15 in math, and 19 in science; chronic absenteeism fell 26 points, from 38% to 12%, below the district’s 23% and state’s 18%. SchoolDigger’s percentile rose from 17 to 42 over that period. Broadous reported 96.5% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, the highest share among the 10 nearby schools; its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 18.0, just above Harding Street’s 17.8. SchoolDigger’s English-learner subgroup ranking was notably high at the 69th percentile in 2023–2024, versus the school’s overall 28th percentile that year; it had risen from the eighth percentile the year before.
