Captain Raymond Collins

Captain Raymond Collins serves a tight-knit corner of Long Beach near the Paramount border, where families tend to prioritize community connection as much as academics. The school's scores reflect the real challenges of this working-class neighborhood, so families who engage closely with teachers and seek out extra enrichment outside the classroom will get the most out of what Collins has to offer. For parents willing to be active partners in their child's education, this can still be a warm and familiar home base in a part of LA that often gets overlooked.
