Summary

Sixty-Sixth Street Elementary serves 649 students in grades K–6 in Los Angeles, part of the large Los Angeles Unified district. Its strongest overall distinction is local: among seven nearby same-district schools with 2025–26 results, it had the highest all-grades English language arts (ELA) result and the second-highest math and science results. The clearest takeaway is that it performs near the top among nearby schools, even though it is below state results in ELA and science.

Compared with nearby schools, its ELA result was 43%, just ahead of Sixty-First Street Elementary; its math result of 44% was second to that school’s 50%, and its science result of 22% was second to Gil Garcetti Learning Academy. It also exceeded the nearby-school averages by 9 points in ELA, 10 in math and 3 in science. Against the state, it was 6 points below in ELA, 5 above in math and 14 below in science; its results were also below the district in ELA and science, but above it in math. Schoolwide averages hide a marked grade-level difference: fifth-grade ELA and math were 32% and 23%, while sixth-grade results were 54% and 53%—above state results by 6 and 16 points, respectively.

Results have improved over the longer term in ELA and math: since 2022–23, each rose by about 9 points, while science was essentially unchanged and its gap with the state widened. SchoolDigger rates the school at the 54th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, up from the 22nd percentile in 2015–16, but roughly level in recent years. Its student-teacher ratio was 22.3 in 2024–25, the highest among the nearby schools, and 98% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, tied for the highest reported rate among nearby schools using the same measure. Chronic absenteeism was 26% in 2025–26, down from 46% in 2021–22 but still above the district’s 23% and state’s 18%. SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings also point to stronger-than-overall results in serving Special Education Students (76th percentile versus 54th overall) and Hispanic Students (71st percentile).
