Summary

Ednovate - South LA College Prep is a public charter high school serving about 400 students in grades 9-12 in South Los Angeles, operating within its own Ednovate - South LA College Prep District.

The school has clear strengths, particularly in English Language Arts, where student proficiency exceeds the state average and outperforms most nearby schools like Alain Leroy Locke College Preparatory Academy and George Washington Preparatory High. Most importantly, it graduates 90% of its students, a rate higher than the state average and significantly better than many neighbors, with a correspondingly low dropout rate.
