Summary

Glenwood Elementary serves 189 students in kindergarten through grade 5 in Sun Valley, California, and is part of Los Angeles Unified. Its clearest academic bright spot is math: in 2025–2026, 33% of students were proficient, compared with 29% in ELA and 15% in science. However, Glenwood remained below both the state and district in all three subjects, making below-benchmark results—especially in science—the most important takeaway.

Compared with six nearby K–5 schools with same-year scores, Glenwood is furthest behind in ELA: its 29% proficiency is 11 points below their 40% average and lower than every peer. Math is its strongest subject relative to those schools: its 33% is 5 points below their 39% average, and above only Camellia Avenue Elementary. In science, Glenwood’s 15% is 13 points below the 29% peer average; only Camellia Avenue scores lower. Statewide, Glenwood’s math is 5 points below the 38% state rate, while science is 21 points below the 36% state rate. ELA is 20 points below the state’s 49% rate.

Math has improved substantially, rising 22 points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, and its gap with the state narrowed from 23 points to 5. Science moved in the opposite direction: it slipped from 17% to 15%, while the state improved, widening the gap from 14 to 21 points. SchoolDigger ranks Glenwood at the 27th percentile statewide with 1 star; among eight nearby schools with a current rank, only Camellia Avenue ranks lower. Glenwood’s 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 21:1, higher than the 17.2:1–20.2:1 range among nearby Los Angeles Unified schools. In 2024–2025, 92% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; the state provides free meals to all students, but Glenwood’s reported eligibility rate remains its own measure. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well the school serves Hispanic students was at the 45th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with Glenwood’s overall 27th percentile. Its ranking for how well it serves female students rose from the 4th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 14th in 2025–2026, still below the overall ranking.
