Summary

PUC Community Charter Mid and PUC Community Charter Early College High is a consistently high-performing 6-12 charter school in Lake View Terrace, serving 776 students with a standout early college program that allows them to earn college credits.

The school excels academically, with proficiency rates in English, Math, and Science that are well above the state average and generally higher than nearby schools like Alliance Marine - Innovation and Technology 6-12 Complex. It achieves an exceptional 98.9% graduation rate and a very low dropout rate. This success is particularly notable because the school serves a high-need population, and its students in special education and from low-income families perform in the top percentiles statewide. The school is part of the PUC Community Charter Mid & PUC Community Charter Early Col district, which ranks significantly higher than the larger Los Angeles Unified district that oversees most other local schools.

While PUC is a strong choice, there are areas to consider. Math, though better than at most comparison schools, is a relative weakness, and chronic absenteeism is slightly above the state average. However, the school's overall model—demonstrating strong, consistent results compared to the highly variable performance of other local options—makes it a compelling choice for families seeking a supportive and academically rigorous environment from middle school through high school.
