Summary

Fishburn Avenue Elementary is a Los Angeles Unified K–5 school in Maywood with 430 students and several nearby elementary schools for comparison. In 2025–2026, its proficiency rates were 36% in English Language Arts/Literacy (ELA), 37% in math, and 22% in science. The central finding is that results remain below both district and state levels in all three subjects, even though math is close to those benchmarks.

Math is Fishburn’s strongest subject relative to the state: its rate was 1 percentage point below the state and 3 points below the district. The gaps were larger in ELA—13 points below the state and 12 below the district—and science—14 points below the state and 10 below the district. Compared with seven nearby K–5 schools, Fishburn was third-lowest among the eight schools with results in each subject. Its rates were also below those peers’ averages: 36% versus 42% in ELA, 37% versus 43% in math, and 22% versus 29% in science.

Results have improved in all three subjects since 2023–2024: ELA rose 7 percentage points, math 9, and science 13, narrowing the gaps with state and district results. Fishburn’s SchoolDigger ranking rose from the 27th to the 40th percentile, and its rating improved from 1 to 2 stars; it still ranked below six of eight nearby schools with rankings. SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings show stronger standing for particular groups: the school ranked at the 59th percentile for Low Socio Economic Status Students and the 57th for Hispanic Students, compared with the 40th percentile overall. In 2024–2025, 94% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, close to the nearby-school average of 95%; the student-teacher ratio was 21.5, among the highest in the nearby group.
