Summary:

Schools in ZIP code 90260 include 13 schools—six elementary, two middle and five high schools—serving students from elementary through high school. The 2025–26 results show especially serious concerns at the high-school level: the four high schools with current scores average 37% in ELA, 14% in math and 11% in science, compared with state figures of 49%, 38% and 36%. Results vary widely among high schools, so the most important finding is that families should compare individual schools rather than rely on the area-wide picture.

Mark Twain Elementary leads the elementary group, with 62% ELA, 60% math and 43% science—13, 22 and 7 percentage points above state figures. Jane Addams Middle leads the middle schools at 57% ELA, 44% math and 41% science, beating state figures by 8, 6 and 5 points. Among high schools with current results, Leuzinger High leads in ELA at 61%, 12 points above the state, while its leading high-school math result, 24%, remains 14 points below. At the bottom, F. D. Roosevelt Elementary scores 30% in ELA, 22% in math and 21% in science; R. K. Lloyde High records 7%, 2% and 3% in those subjects.

Across the 12 schools with results in both years, average scores rose by 1 point in ELA, 3 in math and 2 in science from 2024–25 to 2025–26, though individual results differed: Leuzinger improved in all three subjects, while Roosevelt’s science rose 8 points as its ELA and math fell. SchoolDigger ranks Mark Twain in the 80th statewide percentile and Jane Addams in the 73rd. Free/reduced lunch eligible figures for 2024–25 range from 66% at Mark Twain to 91% at Roosevelt; these are context, not explanations for score differences. Environmental Charter High–Lawndale has no 2025–26 scores, but its 2024–25 results were strong, including 78% ELA.
