Summary

Paseo del Rey Elementary serves 139 students in grades K–5 in Playa Del Rey, a coastal community in Los Angeles, and is part of Los Angeles Unified. Its clearest academic strength is math: results are above state and district levels, while English language arts (ELA) and science trail both—so the school’s academic picture is uneven.

In 2025–26, 55% of students were proficient in math, 17 percentage points above California and 15 above the district, but 7 points below the average for five nearby K–5 schools; Paseo ranked second-lowest among them. ELA proficiency was 43%, 6 points below the state and 5 below the district, and 22 points below the nearby-school average; only Loyola Village Fine And Performing Arts Magnet scored lower. Science was 29%, 7 points below the state, 3 below the district, and 29 below the nearby-school average—the largest local gap.

Math improved from 32% in 2022–23 to 55% in 2025–26, a 23-point gain, while the state rose 4 points. ELA fell 1 point over that period as the state rose 3; science gained 3 points, compared with a 6-point state gain. SchoolDigger ranked Paseo in the 61st percentile statewide and gave it 3 stars in 2025–26; the district ranked in the 54th percentile with 3 stars. Paseo’s 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 17.3, the lowest among nearby schools with reported ratios, compared with a 21.0 average for the others. In 2024–25, 66% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the third-highest share among nearby schools with the same measure; California is designated a statewide-free-meals state, so this figure does not indicate whether students can receive meals. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well Paseo serves African American students was at the 77th percentile in 2022–23, compared with the school’s overall 51st percentile. Its measure for female students rose from the 21st percentile in 2023–24 to the 54th in 2025–26, while the overall school ranking rose from the 45th to the 61st percentile. With 139 students, results can be sensitive to outcomes for relatively few students.
