Summary:
The 90001 zip code area of Los Angeles is home to 19 schools, including 9 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 6 high schools, all part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. While the district is ranked 909 out of 1,560 in California and rated 2 stars out of 5, a few standout schools in the area are worth highlighting.
Public Service Community at Diego Rivera Learning Complex stands out with the highest 4-year graduation rate at 93.4% and the lowest dropout rate at 6.6% among the high schools. It also has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other high schools. Another high-performing school is Animo Pat Brown, a public charter high school with the second-highest 4-year graduation rate at 98.6% and the second-lowest dropout rate at 1.4%. Animo Pat Brown also has the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science among the high schools.
At the elementary level, Dr. Lawrence H. Moore Math Science Technology Academy stands out with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. However, the schools in this zip code area generally perform below the Los Angeles Unified School District and California state averages in these subjects. Additionally, the schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.5% to 51.1%, which may be a contributing factor to the low academic performance. The high free/reduced lunch rates, with most schools having over 95% of students qualifying, suggest that the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, presenting additional challenges in terms of resources and support.
