Summary:

This analysis examines three elementary schools (K-5) within the Los Angeles Unified district, all located in zip code 90025, revealing significant performance differences within the same community.

Westwood Charter Elementary is the clear standout, consistently ranking in the top 5% of California schools with over 75% of students proficient in English and math, far exceeding district and state averages. In contrast, Brockton Avenue Elementary performs near state averages, while Nora Sterry Elementary shows concerning declines, with less than 40% proficiency in core subjects and a state ranking that has dropped to the 29th percentile.

A key finding is the inverse relationship between funding and results: Westwood achieves its excellence with the lowest per-student spending, while Nora Sterry has the highest spending but the lowest performance. Attendance also strongly correlates with success; Westwood has a chronic absenteeism rate of 11.9%, compared to 29.8% at Nora Sterry. This data highlights that within one zip code, school-level factors like culture, teaching, and community engagement play a decisive role in student outcomes.
