Queen Anne is a wonderful, safe school with an excellent teaching staff and administration. We all work hard to accommodate the needs of every student. We would love more parent involvement.

Q.A. employs energetic teachers in each grade level that can academically handle students, whether they are high or low achieving students. In addition, Q.A. has recently adopted an LAUSD approved artistic curriculum for selected teachers so investigate who is in that program.

The principal has strong leadership skills. She also has a strong vision and promotes high expectations for students of color.

Queen Anne is a cozy elementary school with a gorgeous facility. It's administration is adept at procuring resources and it has all of the programs and amenities that one might expect. However, it suffers from the same stagnant test scores that plague other schools in the area.

At the time we request information about this school, even the staff was not well trained in English and customer service skills, so we decide to request a transfer for our kids to another school,and thank God, we got.

The principal does not have social skills with parents, and teachers seem overworked. Safety of the students is mediocre, and new staff needs to be hired for it. This school used to be good, but has been declining for a few years.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.
