Summary:
The Camino Nuevo High #2 District in Los Angeles contains a single high school, Camino Nuevo High #2, serving about 500 students in grades 9-12.
This school serves a community with significant economic need, yet achieves a graduation rate above the California average and excels specifically in English Language Arts, where student proficiency far outpaces the state. However, it faces clear challenges in mathematics and science, with proficiency rates in these subjects currently below state averages. The school's overall state ranking has also declined over the past few years, which is an important trend for families to note.
Despite these academic challenges in specific subjects, the school's ability to maintain a strong graduation rate and a lower-than-average dropout rate is a significant positive. With higher-than-typical per-student spending and a manageable class size, the school has resources that could be directed toward improving its STEM performance and addressing chronic absenteeism, which is higher than the state average.
