ISANA Octavia Academy

Summary:

ISANA Octavia Academy is a public charter elementary school serving 375 students in grades K-8 in Los Angeles, CA. The school is part of the ISANA Octavia Academy District, which is ranked 510 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating.

ISANA Octavia Academy consistently outperforms the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics proficiency across all grade levels, with its Hispanic students ranking in the top 25% of California elementary schools in these subjects. However, the school struggles with English Language Learner (ELL) students, ranking in the bottom 30% of California elementary schools in ELA and Mathematics for this subgroup. The school also has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.6% in 2022-2023, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools and the state average. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free and reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.73% to 84.78% over the past three years, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When compared to the nearby schools, ISANA Octavia Academy generally performs better in ELA and Mathematics, particularly for Hispanic students. However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate and student-teacher ratio of 20.8 in 2022-2023 are areas where it lags behind its neighbors. These factors may have implications for the school's resource allocation, support services, and overall approach to addressing the needs of its students.

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.
