Cienega Elementary

Cienega Elementary sits in the heart of West Adams, one of LA's most historically rich and rapidly evolving neighborhoods, where Victorian-era homes and new local businesses reflect a community in exciting transition. The school draws families who are rooted in the neighborhood and invested in building something together, and its math scores show real promise even as there's room to grow in English and science. Families who thrive here tend to be hands-on and community-minded, appreciating the tight-knit feel that can be harder to find in larger, more transient parts of the city.
