Summary:
The New Village Girls Academy District contains a single high school, New Village Girls Academy, a small, all-girls public school in Los Angeles serving grades 9 through 12.
This school is notable for its very high level of resources, spending over $40,000 per student and maintaining small classes with a low student-teacher ratio, which should allow for significant individual attention. However, it serves a student population with very high economic need, and the school faces severe challenges with student attendance and academic outcomes. Chronic absenteeism is exceptionally high at nearly 85%, and graduation rates are well below the state average while dropout rates are significantly above it.
Academic performance is below state averages, with a particularly critical need in science education. The school's statewide ranking has been volatile in recent years. The data indicates a significant disconnect between the substantial resources invested and the current student outcomes, suggesting that major barriers to learning, especially attendance, must be addressed for the school's resources and supportive environment to translate into academic success for its students.
