School Overview

Northam Elementary sits in the working-class community of La Puente, a quiet corner of the San Gabriel Valley where families tend to put down roots and stay for generations. Academics here are a real area of growth, with test scores that fall below state averages in English, math, and science — something families should factor in when weighing their options. Families who are deeply embedded in the local community and looking for a neighborhood school close to home may find it a comfortable fit, though those prioritizing academic performance may want to explore other schools within Rowland Unified.
