Summary

Arts In Action Community Charter is a K-5 elementary school serving 404 students in East Los Angeles, operating within its own charter district that ranks in the bottom 10% statewide.

Academically, the school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of California schools, with proficiency rates in English, Math, and Science significantly below state averages. While the school spends over $22,000 per student, this investment has not translated into strong academic outcomes compared to nearby schools. For example, Brightwood Elementary in the Alhambra Unified district achieves much higher proficiency with far less funding per student. The school has shown extreme volatility, particularly in serving students with special education needs, where its ranking dropped dramatically in one year.

There are some positive signs, such as a recent improvement in chronic absenteeism and past effectiveness in supporting homeless students and English Language Learners. However, when compared to other local charter schools like KIPP Raices Academy and KIPP Iluminar Academy, which serve similar student populations, Arts In Action's overall performance is significantly lower. The school faces the challenge of improving academic results for its students, many of whom are economically disadvantaged, to match the effectiveness seen at other schools in the area.
