Albion Street Elementary

Summary:

Albion Street Elementary is a public elementary school in Los Angeles, California, serving 145 students in grades K-6. It is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Albion Street Elementary has faced several challenges in recent years. The school has seen a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 9.4% in 2017-2018 to 41.1% in 2021-2022, which is notably higher than the surrounding schools. Additionally, the school's test scores are generally lower than the Los Angeles Unified and California state averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics were 37.33% and 24%, respectively, compared to 47.04% and 35.54% for the state. The school's performance also varies significantly across different student subgroups, with male students ranking 4,993 out of 5,636 California elementary schools (1-star rating) and Hispanic students ranking 3,563 out of 5,102 (2-star rating).

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Solano Avenue Elementary and Castelar Street Elementary, generally outperform Albion Street Elementary in terms of test scores, statewide rankings, and other key metrics. Solano Avenue Elementary, in particular, stands out with a 4-star rating and strong performance across various subjects and grade levels. The high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds at Albion Street Elementary appears to be a significant factor in its relatively lower academic performance compared to the surrounding schools.

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.
