Summary

Westport Heights Elementary is a Los Angeles K–5 school in Los Angeles Unified, with 166 students. Its 2025–26 all-grade proficiency was below district and state rates in English language arts (ELA), math and science. Most notably, among nearby K–5 schools with results that year, Westport had the lowest all-grade proficiency in all three subjects.

Westport’s clearest strength is fifth-grade math: 40% of students were proficient, above the state’s 37% and essentially level with the district’s 40%; the result also exceeded one of the four nearby K–5 schools in the comparison. But third- and fourth-grade math proficiency was just 25% and 22%, compared with state rates of 47% and 42%. Across all grades, Westport scored 38% in ELA, 28% in math and 27% in science, while the nearby K–5 average was 69%, 61% and 59%, respectively. Westport was also below the state and district in every subject; science was closest to both, while math had its largest gap with the district.

Results have improved in some areas but have not risen steadily: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell from 40% to 38%, math edged up from 27% to 28%, and science rose from 21% to 27%. Even so, the state gap widened in ELA and math and was nearly unchanged in science. SchoolDigger placed Westport at the 36th percentile with 2 stars in 2025–26, among the lower-ranked nearby schools. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 18.4, lower than those reported by the four nearby K–5 comparison schools. In 2024–25, 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; that was the fourth-highest rate among 10 nearby schools reporting the same measure. SchoolDigger’s ranking for Male Students was at the 18th percentile in 2025–26, down 34 points from 2023–24; for African American Students, it was at the 58th percentile, above the school’s overall 36th-percentile ranking.
