LAUSD teachers, we need your support to help transform Griffith-Joyner Elementary School! Apply TODAY! Spread the word on FB!
Located in Watts near Wilmington Avenue, Griffith-Joyner instructs a population of 807 children in grades pre-K through 5. The school was named in honor of the Olympic runner who grew up in the nearby Jordan Downs housing project. It has three small learning communities allowing for specialized instruction to better meet the educational needs of its student body. The school is working together with the Partnership to provide a safe and stimulating learning environment and ensure its children’s academic success.
We are committed to developing children with the academic and social skills that are needed to compete and contribute in meaningful ways to the world.
