Summary:
KIPP Sol Academy District in Los Angeles, California, contains one middle school, KIPP Sol Academy, serving grades 5 through 8 with 465 students.
This school faces significant academic challenges, performing below state averages in all core subjects, with mathematics showing the largest gap. Its statewide ranking has also declined over the past three years. A notable concern is the high rate of chronic student absenteeism, which is considerably above the state average and is a critical factor that can impact learning outcomes. Despite these challenges, the school shows a positive trend as students progress, with eighth graders performing closest to the state average in English Language Arts.
Performance varies notably between grade levels within the school, with sixth-grade scores being particularly low compared to other grades. The KIPP Sol Academy District itself is ranked in the lower percentiles statewide. For parents, this suggests that while the school is navigating substantial hurdles, there is evidence of academic growth for students who remain enrolled through the upper grades, highlighting the importance of consistent attendance and engagement.
