Summary

Cheviot Hills Continuation is a very small, alternative high school serving 25 students in grades 9–12 within the Los Angeles Unified district, designed for students at risk of not graduating from a traditional high school.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in English, math, and science far below state averages and a statewide ranking in the bottom 2% of all California high schools. While the school has a high per-student spending level and a low student-teacher ratio intended to provide personalized support, these resources have not translated into strong or consistent outcomes, as seen in highly volatile graduation and chronic absenteeism rates. This performance places it at the lower end compared to other local continuation schools like Culver Park High and View Park Continuation.

Notably, Cheviot Hills is located extremely close to much higher-performing schools in the same district, such as Alexander Hamilton Senior High and the Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies, highlighting a stark disparity in educational experiences within a small geographic area. The school's fluctuating data and severe equity gaps suggest it serves a highly vulnerable population and may require substantial intervention to improve stability and academic results for its students.
