Summary:
The Life Learning Academy Charter District contains a single high school, Life Learning Academy Charter, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 41 students. The school's performance has declined over the past two years, with a 1-star rating and a ranking of 1734 out of 2323 California high schools for the 2023-2024 school year.
Life Learning Academy Charter faces significant challenges, including a low four-year graduation rate of 63.6% and a high dropout rate of 27.3%, both of which are considerably worse than the state averages. The school also struggles with alarmingly high chronic absenteeism, with 81.0% of students chronically absent. Academically, the school's test scores in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics are substantially below the state averages, with only 29.41% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in ELA/Literacy, compared to the state average of 55.73%.
Despite the school's low student-teacher ratio of 8.9 to 1, which could provide more individualized attention, the data suggests that the school serves a population facing significant socioeconomic challenges, with 87.8% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing the school's performance issues will likely require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, resource allocation, and collaboration with the local community and education stakeholders.
