Summary

Camino Nuevo High #2 is a public high school serving about 512 students in grades 9-12 in central Los Angeles, operating within its own Camino Nuevo High #2 District and earning a solid 3-star rating from the state.

The school has clear strengths, particularly in English Language Arts, where student proficiency significantly outpaces the state average, and in achieving a strong 90% graduation rate. However, it faces notable challenges in mathematics and science, with proficiency in these subjects lagging behind state averages. This pattern of stronger English than math performance is common among several nearby high schools, but the gap at Camino Nuevo is pronounced. When compared to other schools, it performs well for its primary student groups and maintains a better chronic absenteeism rate than many neighboring schools with similar student populations, such as Harris Newmark Continuation.

Recent trends show a decline in the school's overall statewide ranking, which is an area for attention. Interestingly, many of the higher-performing schools in the area, like Alliance Ted K. Tajima High and Central City Value, also operate in their own independent districts rather than the large Los Angeles Unified district, suggesting potential benefits from this model. The school's per-student spending is in the mid-range compared to others, indicating that how resources are used is more critical than the amount alone.
