Summary

Owensmouth Continuation is a small Los Angeles Unified high school in Canoga Park, serving 79 students in grades 9–12. Its graduation rate in 2025–2026 was 71%, below the district’s 90% and California’s 88%; its dropout rate was 14%, compared with 6% and 8%. The most urgent concern is attendance: 78% of students were chronically absent, far above the district’s 23% and the state’s 18%.

Academically, English language arts is Owensmouth’s relative strength, while math is its clearest weakness. In 2025–2026, 43% of students were proficient in ELA, compared with 48% in the district and 49% statewide; math proficiency was 7%, versus 40% and 38%, and science proficiency was 17%, versus 32% and 36%. Among five nearby high schools with reported results, averages were 47% in ELA, 27% in math and 29% in science. Owensmouth was about 4 points below that ELA average, 19 points below in math and 12 points below in science. Its math result is especially low compared with both public benchmarks and nearby schools.

Results have improved from a very low starting point: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, ELA proficiency rose from 0% to 43%, math from 0% to 7% and science from 3% to 17%. The ELA gap with the state narrowed by 40 points, although math and science remain well behind. SchoolDigger’s rating rose from zero to two stars, and its percentile improved from 1 to 35; among nearby ranked high schools, only John R. Wooden High ranked lower. In 2024–2025, the student-teacher ratio was 15.6, and 95% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, the second-highest rate among nearby schools with the same measure. With 79 students, results may be sensitive to small changes in the number of students tested.
