Summary:

Schools in ZIP code 90255 include 24 elementary, middle and high schools, serving students across a range of grade levels. Among the 15 schools with results in both 2024–2025 and 2025–2026, average scores improved in English language arts (ELA), math and science, but remained below state averages in all three subjects. The largest average gap is in science: schools averaged 25% in 2025–2026, compared with 36% statewide, while ELA had the smallest gap, at 44% versus 49%. The most important takeaway is that performance varies widely between schools, so an area-wide average can hide meaningful differences.

In 2025–2026, Linda Esperanza Marquez High A Hntngtn Park Inst of Appl Med led all-grades ELA at 66%, 16 points above the 49% state result. Huntington Park Elementary led math at 48%, 9 points above the state’s 38%, and Walnut Park Mid A School of Soc Just and Service Learning led science at 38%, 2 points above the state’s 36%. At the other end, Miles Avenue Elementary had the lowest ELA result, 32%—17 points below state; Huntington Park Senior High had the lowest math result, 22%, 16 points below; and Pacific Boulevard had the lowest science result, 15%, 21 points below.

Most paired schools improved: 10 of 15 rose in ELA, 13 in math and 9 in science. Average school scores increased by 2 points in ELA, 4 in math and 4 in science, narrowing the average gaps to the state by about 2, 3 and 1 points, respectively. But gains were not universal, and strengths can differ by subject or grade: Huntington Park Elementary scored 60% in fourth-grade math but 26% in third-grade ELA. Income measures also do not neatly separate higher and lower results: schools reporting free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–2025 ranged from 88% to 98%; Alliance Margaret M. Bloomfield Technology Academy High reported 96% eligible and 74% ELA, while Academia Moderna reported 94% eligible and 28% ELA. All-grades comparisons can combine different grade spans, so grade-specific results may offer a more useful comparison for a particular student.
