Los Angeles Academy of Arts and Enterprise

Summary:

Los Angeles Academy of Arts and Enterprise is a public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in Los Angeles, CA, with 265 students. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of California high schools, with a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger, suggesting it is performing below average compared to the state.

The data reveals significant performance gaps between Los Angeles Academy of Arts and Enterprise and both the state averages and nearby schools like Edward R. Roybal Learning Center and Ednovate - Brio College Prep. The school has had low 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 62% to 82.9%, and its performance on standardized tests is significantly below state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. The school also has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.9% and a large majority (79.62%) of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

The data suggests the school is struggling to provide an education that prepares students for academic success, particularly for its predominantly disadvantaged student population. Addressing the school's challenges will likely require significant resources and targeted interventions to improve academic achievement and student outcomes. The strong performance of Ednovate - Brio College Prep, a nearby charter school, highlights the potential for public charter schools to outperform traditional public schools in the same geographic area.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
