Cheremoya Avenue Elementary

Summary:

Cheremoya Avenue Elementary is a public elementary school in Los Angeles, California, serving 159 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District, which is ranked 871 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cheremoya Avenue Elementary has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state in academic assessments, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics well below the district and state averages. The school's performance has declined over the years, with its statewide ranking dropping from a 4-star rating in 2015-2016 to a 2-star rating in the most recent school year. The school's performance is particularly low for specific student subgroups, such as White students and Low Socioeconomic Status students, who rank in the bottom 10-20% of California elementary schools. Additionally, Cheremoya Avenue Elementary has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.4% in 2017-2018 to 43.9% in 2022-2023, much higher than the district's average of 27.0%.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Ramona Elementary and Grant Elementary, Cheremoya Avenue Elementary generally underperforms in academic achievement, has higher chronic absenteeism rates, and a less favorable student-teacher ratio. These findings suggest the need for the school to learn from the practices and strategies of higher-performing schools in the area and to address the underlying issues that are contributing to the school's declining performance and high chronic absenteeism.

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.
