Summary

Wilbur Charter for Enriched Academics is a consistently high-performing public charter elementary school (grades K-5) serving 564 students in Tarzana, part of the Los Angeles Unified school district.

The school stands out for its strong and steady academic results, maintaining a 4-star rating for over a decade and ranking well above average statewide. What makes this particularly notable is that Wilbur achieves these outcomes while serving a student population with a moderate level of economic need and doing so very efficiently, spending significantly less per student than nearby schools like Tarzana Elementary or Newcastle Elementary that have lower performance. Compared to other local charters, its success is not automatic; while Wilbur and Academy for Enriched Sciences excel, a school like Calvert Charter for Enriched Studies performs much lower, showing that the specific school model matters greatly.

Wilbur Charter shows notable strengths in supporting student growth across grade levels and in effectively educating students from various backgrounds. However, parents should be aware of two areas for attention: chronic absenteeism is higher here than at some peer schools, and while English and math scores are strong, science proficiency, though above average, is not as high relative to the state. Despite these points, within the broader Los Angeles Unified district context, Wilbur Charter remains a standout example of a school delivering reliable, high-quality education.
