Summary:
The ICEF View Park Preparatory Middle District contains a single public middle school, ICEF View Park Preparatory Middle, which serves grades 6-8 in Los Angeles with 256 students.
This school serves a community with very high economic need, where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this challenge, the school has shown a clear pattern of steady improvement over the last three years, moving from the 32nd to the 46th percentile in statewide rankings. Its strongest academic area is 7th grade English Language Arts, where student proficiency exceeds the California average. However, overall performance in math and science remains significantly below state averages, and chronic absenteeism is higher than the state norm, which can impact learning.
A notable finding is the school's substantial per-student spending, which is well above the typical amount for California. This investment reflects a commitment to student success. Key areas for potential growth include addressing the high student-to-teacher ratio, which may affect individual support, and building on the successful strategies used in 7th grade ELA to strengthen instruction in other grades and subjects. For parents, the data indicates a school that is resource-rich and on an upward trajectory academically, though it continues to work on closing achievement gaps in core subjects.
