Cheviot Hills Continuation

Summary:

Cheviot Hills Continuation is a small public high school in Los Angeles, California, serving grades 9-12 and part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. With just 60 students, the school has consistently struggled with low academic performance, subpar graduation rates, high dropout rates, and chronic absenteeism, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of California high schools.

Cheviot Hills Continuation's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated significantly, ranging from a low of 74.5% to a high of 98.1%, below the state and district averages. The school has also experienced high dropout rates, reaching as high as 16.7% in recent years, notably higher than the state and district. Additionally, Cheviot Hills Continuation has had extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, up to 78.4% in 2021-2022, a major concern linked to poor academic outcomes and increased dropout risk. Standardized test scores show students performing significantly below state and district averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with proficiency rates often in the single digits or low teens.

As a continuation high school, Cheviot Hills likely serves a population of students who have faced significant obstacles, and the data suggests the school is struggling to effectively meet their unique needs.

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.
