Summary

State Street Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 396 students in South Gate, part of the Los Angeles Unified district, and it has undergone a remarkable academic turnaround in recent years, climbing from one of the lowest-performing schools in the state to performing near the middle.

The school's most impressive strengths are in science, where students outperform both the district and state averages, and in 5th grade English Language Arts, where proficiency rates are notably high. Compared to nearby schools like Liberty Boulevard Elementary and San Gabriel Avenue Elementary, State Street stands out for this dramatic and consistent improvement trajectory. The school also appears particularly effective in supporting its student population, with performance for key student groups ranking higher than the school's overall state percentile.

A primary challenge the school continues to face is chronic absenteeism, with a rate higher than both the district and state averages. Addressing this could help accelerate the school's positive gains. While the school's per-student spending is higher than many peers like Walnut Park Elementary, its overall story is one of significant progress, showing what focused effort can achieve in a challenging context.
