Summary

Camino Nuevo Charter Academy #2 is a K-8 charter school serving 711 students in Los Angeles, operating as its own Camino Nuevo Charter Academy #2 District and consistently ranking in the bottom quartile of California schools.

Academically, the school performs significantly below state averages, with only 29% of students proficient in English and 18% in math, which is less than half the proficiency rate of high-performing neighbors like Hoover Street Elementary (67% math) and Dr. Sammy Lee Medical (62% math). A chronic absenteeism rate of 27.7% is notably higher than these top schools and may be a factor in these outcomes. While the school serves a high-needs population, this is similar to several nearby schools in the Los Angeles Unified district that achieve much stronger results, indicating challenges specific to this school's model or implementation.

Notably, the school shows a relative strength in supporting Special Education students compared to its overall performance. However, its academic ranking has been declining, and it spends a comparable amount per student to nearby schools without achieving similar results, suggesting potential inefficiencies. Mathematics is a particular area of concern, with proficiency rates roughly half those in English. The performance of other local charters, such as Citizens of the World Charter School Silver Lake, shows that improvement is possible with different strategies.
