Summary
Grover Cleveland Charter High is a 2,719-student public high school serving grades 9–12 in Reseda, within Los Angeles Unified. Its 2025–2026 all-grades results were above state and district results in English, math, and science, and its graduation rate was strong at 96%. The most important concern is that 12th-grade science proficiency was just 6%, far below the school’s 46% result in 11th-grade science.
English is the school’s clearest strength compared with the state, district, and nearby schools: 70% of students were proficient, versus 49% statewide, 48% in the district, and an average of 62% among nearby schools with reported results. Math was another standout: Cleveland’s 45% was higher than the state’s 38%, the district’s 40%, and every nearby school with a reported score, including Valley International Preparatory High, the nearest competitor at 41%. Science was more mixed: the school’s 41% exceeded state and district results of 36% and 32%, but was essentially even with the nearby-school average of 40%. In 12th-grade science, the school was also below the nearby-school average of 27%, the state’s 33%, and the district’s 12%.
Math has improved most over time, rising 11 percentage points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026; ELA and science also increased over that span, though their results fluctuated between years. SchoolDigger ranks the school in the 78th statewide percentile and gives it 4 stars, a standing within its 72nd-to-79th-percentile range in the available rank history. Context includes a 22.5 students-per-teacher ratio in 2024–2025, the highest among nearby schools with reported ratios, and 72% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 27% in 2025–2026, above the district’s 23% and the state’s 18%. SchoolDigger’s English Language Learner Students ranking rose sharply from the 13th percentile in 2022–2023 to the 63rd in 2023–2024; Special Education Students rose from the 56th to the 82nd percentile between 2023–2024 and 2025–2026.
