Willow Elementary

Lakewood is a quiet, suburban community in southeast LA County with tree-lined streets and a strong sense of neighborhood pride, but families considering Willow Elementary should know that the school's academic scores — particularly in math — sit below where many parents hope to see them. It may be a good fit for families who prioritize proximity and community connection over top-tier test performance, and who are willing to supplement learning at home or through tutoring. For those focused on academics, it's worth exploring other options within ABC Unified before settling in.
