As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

Open Quote This school’s office staff is very rude and disrespectful. They asked me to change my work hours to make sure my kid shows up to school daily. Like finding a job in California is not hard enough. Like many of us don’t have other kids in our house to support along will bills and rent. Okay I bite let’s say I do or could change my schedule “can you please tell me why your staff or security team cannot keep my child in his class all day.” Why is it so hard for your school or staff to prevent kids from leaving campus isn’t that your job once my child is dropped off. Very rude staff still waiting for school to return a phone call I made last week. Worse mistake I made was taking my child out of South Gate High School and putting him in a new School that’s already on its way down. Close Quote

Open Quote International Studies Learning Center is one of, if not the best school you can find in South Gate. It is not very popular because it is a very small school that keeps to itself. It's a public school but tends to focus all subjects on international relations. Even the homerooms(advisory) are classes where students are taught different international studies. It is very unique for the area of Los Angeles. They also offer many opportunities for travel. The teachers there are very dedicated to helping the students succeed and become great global citizens. The staff also works hard to ensure students get the best once they leave the school. Overall it is an amazing school. Having graduated from there and experiencing VP Joe Biden visiting, I can say I am a proud Dragon for life. Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
