Summary

E. Los Angeles Renaiss Academy at Esteban E. Torres High #2 is a public high school serving 355 students in grades 9-12 within the shared campus of Esteban E. Torres High in the Boyle Heights neighborhood, operating under the Los Angeles Unified school district.

The school shows a notable mix of strengths and challenges, with a strong 90.7% graduation rate that exceeds district and state averages, yet it struggles with academic consistency, particularly in mathematics where only 10.98% of students are proficient. Chronic absenteeism, at 39.2%, is a significant concern and is much higher than at neighboring schools like the Soc Just Leadership Academy (20.2%), which also outperforms it in English proficiency. The academy's statewide ranking has been volatile, currently placing in the 36th percentile, and it operates with moderate resources compared to other small learning communities on the same campus.

Interestingly, the school appears particularly effective in supporting its Special Education students, who perform well above the school's overall ranking. However, performance for economically disadvantaged students has declined recently. Compared to other academies in the Esteban E. Torres High complex, such as the Esteban Torres East LA Performing Arts Magnet, there are sharp contrasts in outcomes and per-student spending, highlighting how different programs within the same location can yield different results.
