Summary

Park Western Place Elementary is a K–5 school in San Pedro, serving 528 students in Los Angeles Unified. In 2025–2026, its proficiency rates were above state and district averages in English language arts (ELA), math, and science. Its clearest distinction is science: Park Western scored higher than every nearby school.

Science is the school’s strongest subject compared with nearby schools: 51% proficiency was 17 points above their average of 34%, and the next-highest nearby result was 50%. Park Western also led nearby schools in math, with 59% proficiency, 20 points above the state and 10 points above the district; however, it ranked fourth among nearby schools in math. ELA is its relative weak spot: 59% was above the state by 9 points and the district by 10, but ranked fourth nearby and was 10 points above the nearby average. Overall, Park Western’s results are strong against state and district benchmarks, while it does not lead nearby schools in ELA or math.

Results have improved slightly since 2022–2023, but fell from a high in 2024–2025: ELA is up 3 points over four years, math up 3, and science essentially unchanged, while the latest year was down 8 points in ELA, 10 in math, and 1 in science from the peak. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 78th statewide percentile with 4 stars in 2025–2026, down from the 86th percentile the year before; that was the third-highest percentile among the 10 nearby schools. In 2024–2025, the student–teacher ratio was 21.1, slightly above the nearby average of 20.5. Also in 2024–2025, 67% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a nearby-school average of 76%. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for White students was 58th percentile in 2025–2026, below the school’s overall 78th percentile, and down from 93rd in 2022–2023, when the overall ranking was also 78th.
