Summary:
The 90732 zip code area in California is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of academic performance, with Park Western Place Elementary standing out as the top-performing school, significantly exceeding district and state averages on test scores. In contrast, the other elementary schools, South Shores/CSUDH Visual and Performing Arts and Seventh Street Elementary Arts Integration Magnet, have more mixed results, with some grade levels and subjects scoring above the averages and others below.
The high school, Ernest P. Willenberg Special Education Center, serves a specialized population of students with special needs. While its academic performance is lower, the small class sizes and individualized attention may be beneficial for this student population. However, the school's 0.0% four-year graduation rate and 15.4% dropout rate are concerning and warrant further investigation.
Across the schools, high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.3% to 42.2% at the elementary level, and 32.9% at the high school, are a significant concern. Additionally, the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with free/reduced lunch rates between 49.89% and 70.94% at the elementary schools, and 44.97% at the high school. These factors may have implications for resource allocation and support services within the Los Angeles Unified district.
