Summary

Culver Park High is a very small, alternative public high school serving just 40 students in grades 10-12 within the generally high-performing Culver City Unified district.

The school serves a specific population of students who face significant challenges, most notably with an extremely high rate of chronic absenteeism (over 98%), which is nearly universal and far higher than at nearby comprehensive schools like Culver City High (12.5%). Academic proficiency in core subjects is very low compared to district and state averages, despite the school spending nearly twice as much per student as the comprehensive high school in the same district. This pattern of high need, high cost, and low test scores is common among similar continuation schools in the area, such as View Park Continuation and Cheviot Hills Continuation.

Despite these academic struggles, Culver Park High's core mission appears to be helping at-risk students graduate, and its most recent graduation rate of 92.3% exceeded the state average. Its very small size allows for a more intimate learning environment with a low student-teacher ratio. Year-to-year data for metrics like graduation can fluctuate wildly due to the tiny number of students, but the school plays a distinct role as an alternative pathway for students within the district.
