Summary:

The KIPP Scholar Academy District consists of a single middle school, KIPP Scholar Academy, serving grades 5-8 in Los Angeles.

This school has shown significant improvement, doubling its statewide ranking percentile from the 20th to the 40th over the past two years while maintaining a two-star rating. However, academic proficiency in English, math, and science remains below the state average, with a notable trend of student scores improving from 5th to 8th grade. A major challenge is chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 30.7% that is substantially higher than the state average.

Despite spending over $25,500 per student, which is well above the California average, the school continues to work on closing achievement gaps. The data suggests that students benefit from the school's program over time, but targeted support for incoming 5th graders and strategies to improve daily attendance could help accelerate the school's positive trajectory.
