Summary

Alexander Hamilton Senior High is a Los Angeles high school serving grades 9–12, with 2,055 students in the Los Angeles Unified district. Its clearest academic strength is English, while math results are substantially below district and state levels. Graduation is comparatively strong: 94%, versus 90% in the district and 88% statewide. The more immediate concern is attendance: chronic absenteeism is 35%, compared with 23% in the district and 18% statewide.

Hamilton’s 2025–2026 ELA proficiency was 60%, 12 percentage points above the district and 11 above the state; in math, 28% was 12 points below the district and 10 below the state. Science was closer to state results: 35%, about 1 point below the state and 3 above the district. Nearby comparisons show a similar split: Hamilton’s ELA and math results were above Susan Miller Dorsey Senior High, but below Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies, Culver City High and Beverly Hills High. These nearby schools differ in type and grade span, so comparisons are useful context rather than a like-for-like ranking.

Over four reported years, math proficiency rose from 25% to 28% and science from 30% to 35%, while ELA fell from 68% to 60%; chronic absenteeism also increased from 32% in 2021–2022 to 35% in 2025–2026. SchoolDigger ranks Hamilton 803rd of 2,137 statewide, at the 62nd percentile with 3 stars. In 2024–2025, 76% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 17.3. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for Special Education Students was at the 43rd percentile in 2025–2026, below Hamilton’s overall 62nd percentile; its English Language Learner Students ranking fluctuated sharply, from the 41st percentile in 2021–2022 to the 7th in 2022–2023 and the 65th in 2023–2024.
