Summary

Glen Alta Elementary is a 112-student K–5 public school in Los Angeles, part of Los Angeles Unified. Its latest results are uneven: ELA and math are below state averages, while science is a striking strength. In 2025–2026, 73% of students were proficient in science, compared with 36% statewide and 32% districtwide—the clearest standout in the school’s profile.

Compared with six nearby same-district K–5 schools, Glen Alta was far ahead in science but below the group’s averages in ELA and math. Its science proficiency was 73%, versus a peer average of 29%; ELA was 43% versus 45%, and math was 36% versus 44%. The same pattern shows in state and district comparisons: ELA was 43% at Glen Alta, compared with 49% statewide and 48% districtwide; math was 36%, versus 38% and 40%. Fifth-grade ELA was a bright spot, at 73%—above the state and district rates of about 49% and higher than any nearby school’s fifth-grade result. Third- and fourth-grade results are suppressed, so those grades cannot be assessed here.

Results have shifted over time: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, science proficiency rose 39 percentage points, ELA fell 5 points, and math rose 3 points overall, though math has declined since 2023–2024. Glen Alta earned four stars and ranked in the 80th percentile statewide in SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 rankings, up from the 66th percentile in 2021–2022. SchoolDigger’s ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students was at the 93rd percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 80th percentile, a notably stronger measured standing for that group. In 2024–2025, the student–teacher ratio was 15.9:1, and 97% of students were reported as free/reduced lunch eligible.
