Summary:
The Empower Language Academy District consists of a single K-6 charter school, Empower Language Academy, serving 153 students in San Diego.
This school stands out for its impressive and rapid improvement, climbing from a 1-star to a 3-star state ranking in just two years, now performing at the 50th percentile statewide. A major strength is student engagement, with a chronic absenteeism rate of only 7.6%, which is less than half the state average. Academically, the school's mathematics proficiency of 37% is on par with the California average, a notable achievement given that half of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.
While English Language Arts scores are slightly below the state average, the overall trajectory is strongly positive. The school operates with a student-teacher ratio of 21.8 to 1 and substantial per-student funding. For parents, Empower Language Academy represents a small, focused learning environment that has demonstrably accelerated student performance and fosters excellent daily attendance.
