Summary

Lindbergh Elementary serves 552 students in grades K–6 in Lynwood, a community in Los Angeles County. Its results are mixed: science stands out compared with nearby schools, while math and English language arts (ELA) lag, and chronic absenteeism remains a major concern. Absenteeism fell from 55% in 2021–22 to 39% in 2025–26, but Lindbergh still had the highest rate among nearby schools with current data—5 percentage points above the next-highest local K–6 rate.

Science is Lindbergh’s strongest subject relative to nearby K–6 schools: its 30% proficiency rate was second-highest among seven schools, compared with a peer average of 22%. It was 13 points above Lynwood Unified but 6 points below the state. ELA and math were weaker: Lindbergh’s 29% in ELA was 7 points below the nearby-school average and 20 points below the state; its 23% in math was the lowest among those seven schools, 6 points below the peer average, and 15 points below the state. Math was just above the district result (23.4% versus 23.0%), while ELA was 7 points below it.

Results have moved in different directions: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, science rose from 16% to 30%, ELA fell from 33% to 29%, and math rose from 21% to 23% after peaking in 2023–24. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking also declined, from the 39th percentile and two stars in 2023–24 to the 25th percentile and one star in 2025–26. Its subgroup measure showed stronger relative standing for English Language Learner students: the 2023–24 effectiveness ranking was at the 83rd percentile, compared with the schoolwide 39th percentile. For Special Education Students, the ranking shifted sharply from the 5th percentile in 2023–24 to the 63rd in 2024–25. Lindbergh’s student–teacher ratio was 24 in 2024–25; its reported free/reduced lunch eligible share was 91% that year.
