Summary

Leland Street Elementary serves 418 students in grades K–5 in San Pedro, California. In 2025–2026, students’ proficiency was 39% in English language arts (ELA), 36% in math and 21% in science, compared with nearby-school averages of 53%, 54% and 41%. The central concern is that Leland ranked second-lowest among ten nearby schools in all three subjects, with only Barton Hill scoring lower.

Math is Leland’s strongest subject relative to the state and district, though results remain below both: 36% proficiency, compared with 38% statewide and 40% districtwide. ELA was 39%, versus 49% for the state and 48% for the district; science was weakest against nearby schools, 21% compared with their 41% average. Within the school, third-grade ELA stands out: 45% was slightly above the state and district, while fourth- and fifth-grade ELA results were lower. Fifth-grade math was the lowest among nearby schools, and fifth-grade science was second-lowest. The supplied rating for Los Angeles Unified is districtwide, not a rating of Leland.

Results have improved modestly since 2022–2023: ELA rose 3 percentage points, math 1 point and science 2 points, though science fell from 23% in 2024–2025 to 21% in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger ranks Leland in the 42nd percentile statewide with 2 stars, up from the 34th percentile in 2023–2024; it remains above only one nearby school in the current ranking. The student-teacher ratio is 20.9, close to the nearby average of 20.5. Leland reports 84% free/reduced lunch eligible for 2024–2025, compared with a 73% nearby average for schools with the same measure and year. In 2021–2022, SchoolDigger ranked how well Leland served White students at the 73rd percentile and Disabled Students at the 74th, above the school’s overall 56th-percentile ranking that year. These subgroup rankings are single-year results and do not establish a lasting pattern.

What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, May 16, 2011

Poor leadership by the school's principal. Office staff is lazy and unhelpful. School rules that fall under the Zero Tolerance policy are not enforced. The GATE program (if your child is considered "gifted") is virtually non-existent and there is no support for these students or parents. The school also consistently ranks low on the school report card we are mailed every year. Close Quote
