Summary

Glenfeliz Boulevard Elementary is a small, K-6 public school in Los Angeles serving 189 students, located in an area with a mix of highly-rated and lower-performing schools within the Los Angeles Unified district.

This school tells a remarkable turnaround story, having climbed from being ranked in the bottom 15% of California elementary schools a decade ago to the top 66% today. A key driver of this success appears to be its effective focus on student attendance, having dramatically reduced chronic absenteeism from 37.6% to 16% in just three years. The school is particularly effective with its student population, outperforming other nearby schools with similar demographics, such as Fletcher Drive Elementary and ISANA Octavia Academy.

While Glenfeliz's progress is impressive, its performance still varies by grade and it operates with significantly higher per-student spending than some top-tier neighbors like Ivanhoe Elementary and Franklin Avenue Elementary. Its trajectory and focus on foundational supports make it a compelling option that is achieving stronger results than many comparable schools in the area.
