Summary

Rise Kohyang High is a consistently high-performing public charter high school serving 470 students in grades 9-12 in Los Angeles's Koreatown, operating within the Rise Kohyang High District.

The school stands out for its strong academic results, particularly in English Language Arts where 63% of students are proficient, well above the state average. It maintains a solid 4-star rating and outperforms most neighboring schools like Belmont Senior High and Harris Newmark Continuation. This success is notable given that over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and the school is particularly effective for students from low-income families and Hispanic students. However, there is a significant gap in mathematics performance, which lags behind the state average and some nearby charters like Alliance Ted K. Tajima High and Central City Value.

While graduation rates are strong, chronic absenteeism is above average, and a recent trend shows declining performance for female students. The school uses its resources efficiently, spending less per student than several lower-performing schools in the area, such as New Village Girls Academy. For families, Rise Kohyang High offers a stable, high-quality option in a dense urban area with many school choices, with clear strengths in literacy and supporting economically disadvantaged students, but with acknowledged areas for growth in math and attendance.
