Summary:
The Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter District in Los Angeles contains a single elementary school, Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter, which serves grades K-6 with 308 students, nearly all of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.
Despite a high per-student spending of over $22,000, the school's academic performance is below state averages, with only about a third of students proficient in English and less than 20% proficient in math and science. The school has also seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years. A major challenge is chronic absenteeism, with over 30% of students missing significant school, which is a key factor often linked to lower academic achievement.
Performance varies widely by grade, with sixth graders performing close to the state average in English, suggesting potential for success, while fourth-grade scores are particularly low. This inconsistency across grades points to a need for targeted instructional support. For parents, this indicates a school facing significant hurdles in student attendance and academic consistency, despite considerable financial investment, highlighting areas where focused improvement efforts are most needed.
