Summary

Montebello Park Elementary is a K-5 public school serving 365 students in the Montebello Unified district, located in a high-need community where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school is on a clear upward trend, having improved its statewide ranking significantly since the pandemic and now outperforming several nearby schools with similar student populations, including Winter Gardens Elementary and Greenwood Elementary in both English and math. A major driver of this success is a dramatic improvement in attendance, with chronic absenteeism cut by more than half in three years, now better than both the district and state averages. The school also shows a particular strength in supporting English Language Learners and achieves these results while spending less per student than many neighboring schools like Rosewood Park.

While showing promise, the school still faces challenges, such as science scores that lag behind state averages and a noticeable performance gap where male students are outperforming female students. Its performance is also uneven across grade levels, with very strong 3rd-grade math but weaker 4th-grade results. Compared to the highest-performing schools in the area, such as Bella Vista Elementary or the charter school KIPP Raices Academy, Montebello Park has room to grow, but its efficient use of resources and positive trajectory make it a school that is steadily improving for its community.
