Summary

Oscar De La Hoya Animo Charter High is a public charter high school serving about 515 students in grades 9-12 in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles, operating within its own Oscar De La Hoya Animo Charter High District.

The school has a standout strength in getting students to graduation, with a rate of over 96%, which is significantly higher than the state average and better than most nearby schools like Theodore Roosevelt Senior High. However, academic performance is mixed; while students do relatively well in English Language Arts compared to local peers, math proficiency is a major challenge, with only about 15% of students meeting state standards. This is a common issue in the area, though the high-performing Math Science & Technology Magnet Academy at Roosevelt High nearby shows much stronger math results.

Other important points for parents include a concerningly low performance ranking for serving special education students, and a rate of chronic absenteeism that, while higher than the state average, is actually lower than many surrounding comprehensive schools. The school's overall state ranking has been volatile, dropping recently, which suggests some inconsistency year-to-year. Compared to other schools in Los Angeles Unified, it occupies a middle ground—graduating students at an excellent rate but needing significant improvement in core academic areas, especially mathematics.
