Summary:
The Collegiate Charter High School of Los Angeles District contains a single charter high school, Collegiate Charter High School of Los Angeles, which serves 141 students in grades 9-12 in Los Angeles, California.
This small school stands out for its very high rate of economically disadvantaged students and its success in keeping students enrolled, boasting a zero dropout rate and an 82.4% graduation rate, which is close to the state average. However, it faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in English, math, and science all below state averages, and its statewide ranking has declined over the past three years. A major area of concern is chronic absenteeism, with over 35% of students chronically absent, a rate nearly double the state average.
Despite lower test scores, the school's ability to graduate students facing economic hardship is notable. It operates with substantial resources per student and a low student-teacher ratio, which may contribute to its retention strengths. For parents, this school represents an environment focused on supporting at-risk students through to graduation, though families should be aware of the academic performance gaps and the serious attendance issues that likely impact learning.
