School Overview

Wilmington is one of LA's more industrial harbor communities, and Fries Avenue Elementary reflects the working-class, tight-knit character of the neighborhood it serves. The school faces real academic challenges — scoring in the lower quartile across English, math, and science — so families with options in the area may want to weigh those numbers carefully alongside any supplemental support they can provide at home. That said, for families rooted in Wilmington, it's a community school in the truest sense, situated close to the port and the everyday rhythms of a neighborhood that doesn't get much spotlight but has a lot of heart.
