Summary

Equitas Academy #3 Charter is a K-4 elementary school serving 435 students in the Pico-Union/Westlake area of Los Angeles, operating as part of the Equitas Academy #3 Charter District.

Overall, the school earns a middling state ranking but performs better than several neighboring schools in core subjects like English and Math. It is particularly effective in supporting English Language Learners, where its performance ranks significantly above the state average. A key challenge is chronic absenteeism, with a rate higher than the state average and higher than nearby schools like Camino Nuevo Charter Academy. The school has a higher student-teacher ratio than most area schools, indicating larger class sizes.

When compared within its own network, it performs similarly to other Equitas Academy Charter schools. A notable comparison is with the exceptionally high-performing Hoover Street Elementary located less than a mile away, which achieves much higher test scores with a lower student-teacher ratio. The school's spending per student is in the mid-range for the area, and there is no clear link between higher spending and better outcomes, as seen with lower-performing schools like Leo Politi Elementary.
