Summary:
The 90036 zip code area of Los Angeles, California is home to 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Hancock Park Elementary and Wilshire Crest Elementary) and 1 high school (Whitman Continuation). These schools serve a diverse, economically disadvantaged student population, with varying levels of academic performance.
Hancock Park Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, ranking in the top 918 out of 5,848 California elementary schools and significantly outperforming the Los Angeles Unified School District and California state averages in standardized assessments. In contrast, Whitman Continuation struggles academically, with proficiency rates well below the district and state averages. Wilshire Crest Elementary has shown improvement in its performance, but still lags behind Hancock Park Elementary.
