Summary

City of Angels is a K–12 alternative school in Los Angeles, California, serving 1,058 students in Los Angeles Unified. Its graduation rate is 56%, below the district’s 90% and the state’s 88%. The most urgent concern is chronic absenteeism: 72% of students were chronically absent in 2025–2026, compared with 23% in the district and 18% statewide.

English language arts is the school’s strongest subject relative to its other results, but it still trails nearby schools, the district and the state: 35% were proficient, versus nearby schools’ 42% average, 48% in the district and 49% statewide. The result was fourth-lowest among nine nearby schools with reported results. Mathematics is the clearest weakness: 13% were proficient, compared with a 34% nearby-school average, 40% in the district and 38% statewide; it was lowest among the nine nearby schools with results. Science was also low, at 18%, versus a 33% nearby-school average, 32% in the district and 36% statewide, and was lowest among those nearby schools.

Results have changed unevenly since 2022–2023: English proficiency fell by 1 percentage point to 35%, math rose by 2 points to 13%, and science improved by 7 points to 18%. Even with the science gain, its gap with the state narrowed by only 1 point and remains 18 points; the state gaps widened by 4 points in English and 2 in math. For context, the student-teacher ratio was 21.4 in 2024–2025, second-highest among nearby schools with reported ratios, compared with their average of 18. In that same school year, 87% of students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, slightly below the nearby-school average of 89%. SchoolDigger’s rank of 450 out of 968, 54th percentile and three stars are for the district, not for the school.
