Summary:

This analysis covers 13 public schools in zip code 90745 (Carson, CA), all part of the Los Angeles Unified district, serving grades K-12 in a community where the vast majority of students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Among these schools, Two Hundred Thirty-Second Place Elementary and Carson Street Elementary stand out as the highest-performing elementary schools, while the Academy of Medical Arts at Carson High is the top-ranked high school, demonstrating strong results in its specialized program.
