Summary

Lockwood Avenue Elementary serves 285 students in kindergarten through grade 6 in Los Angeles, near several other elementary schools. In 2025–26, its proficiency was 28% in English language arts, 22% in math and 20% in science—below both Los Angeles Unified and California in all three subjects. The most important finding is that Lockwood’s math and science results were the lowest among nearby same-district schools with results for that year.

Compared with the district and state, Lockwood trailed by 21 and 22 percentage points in English, 18 and 17 points in math, and 12 and 16 points in science. Nearby-school comparisons tell a similar story: Lockwood was 22 points below the eight-school average in English, 27 points below in math and 16 points below in science. Its English result was nearly the same as Ramona Elementary, but its math and science results were lowest among those nearby peers. Within Lockwood, grade 4 math was particularly weak at 11%; grade 5 was stronger in English at 38%, though still below nearby schools reporting that grade.

Results have not improved consistently over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, English proficiency fell by 7 percentage points, math was nearly flat, and science rose by 4 points from a low starting point. The state gap widened in all three subjects. SchoolDigger placed Lockwood at the 19th percentile statewide with 1 star in 2025–26, down from the 38th percentile the prior year; its 18.9 students per teacher in 2024–25 was slightly below the nearby average of 19.7. In 2024–25, 97% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. SchoolDigger’s percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students fell from 51 in 2024–25 to 27 in 2025–26, while its percentile for Hispanic Students dropped from 45 in 2023–24 to 23 in 2025–26; these are measures of how well the school serves those groups.

What people are saying

by a parent
Saturday, October 13, 2018

Special needs children are physically abused and emotionally neglected at this school. If you are unfortunate enough to have a special needs child assigned to this school, make sure you attend and audio record every IEP meeting (just give them 24 hours notice before the meeting that you are recording). Get in contact with a regional center (I recommend Lanterman) and read your parents rights handbook. They expect you not to read the materials and they will do things that are both unethical and illegal to save a buck and not provide your child with the services he/she needs. Close Quote
