Summary

Seventy-Fourth Street Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 377 students in the Los Angeles Unified district, located in a high-need area of South Los Angeles where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite the challenging context, the school is on a positive upward trend, having improved its statewide ranking from the 24th percentile in 2019 to the 44th percentile in 2025. It stands out from many nearby schools, often outperforming them academically; for example, its math proficiency rate of 38% exceeds both the district and state averages, while schools like Budlong Avenue Elementary and YES Academy rank significantly lower. The school has also made strong progress reducing chronic absenteeism, which, while still high, is much lower than at several neighboring schools.

Key areas for growth include science, where proficiency is well below average, and support for special education students. The school spends more per student than most peers in the area, but this hasn't translated to smaller class sizes. Compared to local charter options like Crete Academy or TEACH Prep Mildred S. Cunningham & Edith H. Morris Elementary, Seventy-Fourth Street generally achieves stronger academic results, demonstrating it is a relative success story in its community with a clear trajectory of improvement.
