Summary

Dolores Huerta Elementary is a 321-student K–5 school in Los Angeles, part of Los Angeles Unified. Its most striking finding is the split between grades: fourth graders scored above state and district results in ELA and math (53% and 51%), while fifth graders scored well below both in those subjects (31% and 24%).

Among five nearby same-district schools with comparable results, Dolores Huerta ranked first of six in math, second in ELA, and fourth in science. Its all-grade math result was 38%, about 1 point below the state and 2 points below the district, while it led nearby peers; ELA was 37%, 12 points below the state and 11 below the district, but still second among those peers. Science was weaker: 18%, 18 points below the state and 14 below the district. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism was 29%, compared with 23% districtwide and 18% statewide.

Results have fluctuated: ELA was nearly unchanged from 2022–23 to 2025–26, after a sharp rise in 2024–25, while math gained 6 points overall and rebounded to 38% in the latest year. Science ended nearly where it began, after rising and then falling. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 41st statewide percentile with 2 stars in 2025–26 (rank 3,420 of 5,804). Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 21.4, and 67% of students were directly certified for free meals that year. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show a standout result for English Language Learner students: the group reached the 80th percentile in 2023–24, up from 23 in 2021–22, compared with the school’s overall 41st percentile that year. Hispanic students also ranked above the school overall in 2025–26: 57th percentile versus 41st.
