One Hundred Seventh Street Elementary

Summary:

One Hundred Seventh Street Elementary is a public elementary school in Los Angeles, California, serving 857 students in grades K-5 and part of the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Despite being part of a large urban district, One Hundred Seventh Street Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 10-15% of California elementary schools, with only 16.14% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 43.06% for Los Angeles Unified and 47.04% for California. The school's performance is particularly low for African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 16.3% in 2017-2018 to 45.9% in 2022-2023. These challenges are likely exacerbated by the school's extremely high percentage of students (over 97%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage.

While the nearby One Hundred Ninth Street Elementary, Charles W. Barrett Elementary, and Ninety-Ninth Street Elementary generally perform better than One Hundred Seventh Street Elementary, they still struggle with low academic performance compared to state and district averages. This suggests that the challenges faced by One Hundred Seventh Street Elementary are not unique but rather reflective of broader issues within the Los Angeles Unified School District. Addressing these complex issues will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach that considers the school's unique context and the broader educational landscape of the surrounding 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.
