Summary

Rise Kohyang Elementary is a public K-5 school serving 278 students in the Westlake/MacArthur Park area of Los Angeles, operating within its own Rise Kohyang Elementary District.

The school has a mixed academic profile, with a notable strength in mathematics where student proficiency exceeds the state average and outperforms many nearby schools like Camino Nuevo Charter Academy #2 and Commonwealth Avenue Elementary. However, it faces significant challenges in English Language Arts and Science, creating a large achievement gap between subjects. A key strength is its effective support for English Language Learner students, where it ranks significantly higher than its overall state ranking. The school also shows a positive trend in improving student attendance, with its chronic absenteeism rate now lower than several comparable schools in the area.

Compared to other schools in Los Angeles Unified and local charter networks, Rise Kohyang achieves its competitive math results with moderate per-student spending. The performance of nearby schools is highly variable, with Hoover Street Elementary being exceptionally high-performing and others showing dramatic year-to-year changes, indicating that outcomes in this community can be sensitive to specific programs and leadership.
