Summary

Dolores Huerta Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 321 students in the Los Angeles Unified district, operating in a high-need community where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school has a consistent record and shows particular strengths in teaching English Language Arts, where it outperforms most neighboring schools like Ricardo Lizarraga Elementary and Twenty-Eighth Street Elementary. It is notably effective with English Language Learners and achieves these solid results with lower per-student spending compared to nearby schools such as Quincy Jones Elementary. The school has also made excellent progress in reducing chronic student absenteeism since the pandemic.

Areas for growth include mathematics and science, where scores are below state averages, a pattern also seen in some nearby schools. Compared to local charter options, Dolores Huerta performs better academically than Gabriella Charter 2 but trails Synergy Charter Academy in core subjects. Parents should note the student-teacher ratio has increased this year, which may be a factor to watch for future performance.
