Utah Street Elementary

Public Grades K-8

4537^th

of 5,857 California Elementary Schools

Better than 23% of California elementary schools

Summary

Utah Street Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 360 students in the Los Angeles Unified School District, located in a high-need area where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school performs below district and state averages, ranking in the bottom quartile of California elementary schools. While it spends significantly more per student and has smaller class sizes than most nearby traditional public schools like First Street Elementary and Second Street Elementary, these resources have not translated into higher test scores. Performance varies dramatically by grade, with a notable strength in 8th-grade English that exceeds averages, but an alarming weakness in 6th-grade math.

Compared to local charter schools such as PUC Milagro Charter, which achieves much higher results with fewer resources, Utah Street's model presents a puzzle. A positive trend is a major reduction in chronic student absenteeism, showing improvement that outpaces many neighbors. The school's science scores are also relatively stronger compared to some nearby schools, suggesting areas of potential strength to build upon.
