Summary:

Five elementary schools serve ZIP code 90057, spanning kindergarten through grade 8: Union Avenue Elementary and MacArthur Park Elementary School serve K–5, Charles White Elementary serves grades 1–5, Camino Nuevo Charter Academy serves K–8, and Lafayette Park Primary Center serves kindergarten. Across the three schools with 2025–26 results, average proficiency was 39% in English language arts (ELA), 38% in math, and 18% in science, compared with state results of 49%, 38%, and 36%. The clearest overall takeaway is that math was near the state level, while science was 18 percentage points below it.

Charles White led the 2025–26 group in every subject, with 43% proficiency in ELA, 46% in math, and 23% in science. MacArthur Park had the lowest results—34%, 26%, and 11%, respectively—leaving gaps of 8 points in ELA, 20 in math, and 12 in science between the two schools. Union Avenue was between them in ELA and science, but its 42% math result was 4 points above the state. SchoolDigger ranks Charles White at the 54th percentile with 3 stars, Union Avenue at the 48th percentile with 2 stars, and MacArthur Park at the 26th percentile with 1 star.

Results changed differently by school and subject. Across Union Avenue, MacArthur Park, and Charles White, average ELA rose 2 percentage points and math rose 3 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while science fell 1 point; the science gap with the state widened by 5 points. Union Avenue’s math result rose 12 points, while Charles White’s results fell by 2 points in ELA, 4 in math, and 4 in science despite its leading current results. Charles White also had a lower student–teacher ratio (16.6:1) than MacArthur Park (21.1:1) and Union Avenue (21.8:1). For 2024–25, Union Avenue and MacArthur Park reported 94% and 98% free/reduced lunch eligible; Charles White, Camino Nuevo, and Lafayette Park reported 55%, 61%, and 64% directly certified for free meals—different measures that should not be compared as if they were the same scale. Only three schools have 2025–26 test results; Camino Nuevo’s latest results are from 2024–25, and Lafayette Park has no reported test scores.
