Summary

Sheridan Street Elementary is a K-6 public school serving 555 students in the Boyle Heights/East Los Angeles area of the Los Angeles Unified district, notable for its remarkable and consistent academic improvement over the last decade.

This school is a standout success story, having dramatically climbed from one of the lowest-performing schools in the state to now ranking above many of its neighbors. It shows exceptional strength in teaching English Language Learners, who perform significantly above the school's overall average. Furthermore, Sheridan Street has made incredible progress in getting students to school regularly, now boasting a better attendance rate than the district, state, and most nearby schools like Bridge Street Elementary and Murchison Street Elementary. It achieves these results efficiently, with per-student spending lower than several comparison schools.

While challenges remain, particularly in science instruction, the school's upward trajectory is clear. It now performs comparably to or better than many local options, including outperforming Extera Public and nearing the performance of Puente Charter, while serving a very high-need student population. For parents, the data paints a picture of a school that is effectively improving and getting stronger year after year.
