Summary

Multnomah Street Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 322 students in the Los Angeles Unified School District, standing out as a high-performing and consistently improving school in its area.

Academically, the school excels, with student proficiency in English, Math, and Science significantly higher than both the Los Angeles Unified district and state averages. Its statewide ranking places it in the 82nd percentile, which is the highest among nearby schools like Glen Alta Elementary (74th percentile) and Farmdale Elementary (58th percentile). The school has shown remarkable resilience, rebounding strongly from the pandemic to reach its highest ranking in a decade. A particularly interesting finding is that male students at the school consistently rank higher than female students, which is an unusual pattern that highlights the school's engaging environment.

Beyond test scores, Multnomah Street fosters a strong school culture, evidenced by a chronic absenteeism rate of 14.1%—the lowest among its local peers and much better than the district average. It achieves these top-tier results efficiently, spending less per student than many neighboring schools such as Murchison Street Elementary and Harrison Street Elementary, which have far lower academic performance. This combination of high achievement, excellent attendance, and effective use of resources makes it a standout model of success.
