Summary:

ZIP code 91001 has three elementary schools: Mary W. Jackson STEAM Multilingual Magnet Elementary serves kindergarten through grade 5, while Odyssey Charter and OCS - South serve kindergarten through grade 8. All three reported results for 2024–2025, but only Mary and OCS reported results for 2025–2026. The clearest standout in the latest year available for all three is Odyssey: it led the other schools in ELA, math, and science by 25, 20, and 28 percentage points, respectively, compared with their average.

Odyssey Charter had the strongest 2024–2025 all-grades results, with 80% proficient in ELA, 65% in math, and 73% in science; it was also 31, 28, and 40 points above the state in those subjects. Mary W. Jackson had the lowest results in all three subjects that year: 43% in ELA, 38% in math, and 34% in science. Those were 6 points below the state in ELA, about level in math, and 1 point above in science. In 2025–2026, OCS - South led Mary in all-grades results by 5 points in ELA, 12 in math, and 6 in science. However, among grades 3–5, Mary’s average ELA result was 5 points higher, while OCS’s math average was 4 points higher.

Recent results moved in different directions: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Mary rose 4 points in ELA and 3 in science but fell 1 in math; OCS fell 16 points in ELA, 5 in math, and 13 in science. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Odyssey shifted from the 91st percentile in 2022–2023 to the 88th in 2024–2025; Mary’s was 54th in 2025–2026, and OCS’s was 64th. As context, in 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible students were 52% at Mary, 26% at Odyssey, and 29% at OCS; student-teacher ratios ranged from 19.6 at OCS to 25.7 at Odyssey. Mary also had lower 2025–2026 chronic absenteeism than OCS—16% versus 21%—though OCS had higher all-grades test results. Since the schools serve different grade spans, families may find same-grade results more useful than all-grades comparisons.
