About Brockton Avenue Elementary
Brockton Avenue Elementary serves 203 students in kindergarten through fifth grade in Los Angeles, California. The school earns a composite score of 9.3 out of 10 — an Exceptional rating — driven by a near-perfect growth score of 9.9 and an academic score of 8.5. The numbers tell a precise story.
Brockton Avenue ranks #67 out of 9,533 public schools in California, outperforming 99% of schools statewide. Within Los Angeles, it places #15 of 563 public schools — a result that holds regardless of grade level or school type. Among California elementary schools specifically, it ranks #61 out of 5,817, confirming that its performance isn't an artifact of a small or selective student body.
With 203 students and a student-teacher ratio of 20.3:1, the school operates at a scale where individual students stay visible. The growth score of 9.9 carries particular weight here — it measures how much students advance academically year over year, not just where they start. That distinction matters for families: growth reflects teaching quality more directly than raw proficiency, which tends to track demographics.
At Brockton Avenue, both metrics point in the same direction.
