Summary

Alliance Ted K. Tajima High is a standout public high school serving 484 students in grades 9-12 in Los Angeles, consistently ranking among the top 15% of schools statewide despite serving a student population where nearly all qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school excels in several critical areas, achieving an exceptional 85.71% proficiency rate in English Language Arts and maintaining graduation rates above 97%, far surpassing both the state average and most nearby schools like Belmont Senior High. It provides outstanding support for specific student groups, ranking in the 96th percentile for special education students and the 92nd percentile for students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Furthermore, it operates efficiently, with lower chronic absenteeism and near-zero dropout rates compared to neighboring schools, and does so with a lower per-student cost than many peers such as the Los Angeles Academy of Arts and Enterprise.

While mathematics proficiency is an area for continued growth, it has shown steady improvement. The school's consistent excellence, achieved within its own Alliance Ted K. Tajima High District, demonstrates a highly effective model that delivers strong results for its community, contrasting sharply with the wider performance variation seen among other schools in the area.
