Summary

Justice Street Academy Charter is a public K-5 elementary school serving 430 students in West Hills, California, within the Los Angeles Unified School District, and it has shown impressive and consistent academic growth, now ranking in the 85th percentile statewide.

The school stands out for its strong academic results, especially considering its student population, with proficiency rates in English and Math significantly above district and state averages.

Its sustained improvement trajectory from the 66th to the 85th percentile over several years is a key strength. Some areas for continued focus include supporting consistent performance across all grade levels, particularly in upper-grade science and math, and ensuring all student groups thrive equally.
