School overview
Heliotrope Avenue Elementary
Who governs Heliotrope Avenue Elementary, how its allocation is set, and what the available public record shows. Part of Los Angeles Unified School District.
Who makes decisions for this school?
Heliotrope Avenue Elementary is governed by the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education. LAUSD identifies it as location 4507 and cost center 1450701 in Region East. The public directory identifies school-plan and budget-report paths, but the collected record does not include council minutes or the school plan itself.
District governance
LAUSD’s Board of Education governs the school; the directory places Heliotrope in Board District 5 and the Bell/Cudahy/Maywood Community of Schools.
School allocation is formula-based
The FY 2025-26 report bases Heliotrope’s allocation on an enrollment forecast of 446 and lists a SENI Quintile 4, Low designation. SENI funds are intended for increased services for low-income students, English learners, and foster youth.
Public record gap
The directory exposes budget and plan links, but the available source set does not establish any 2025-26 School Site Council, ELAC, or Local School Leadership Council actions.
The missing school-site archive does not show that no local decisions were made. It only limits what this public record can verify.

ECast is the forecast used for allocation, not an actual enrollment count.
The earlier allocation lists 65.72 FTE positions and an enrollment forecast of 493.
The directory identifies the school as being in Board District 5.
