Summary:

This analysis covers seven public high schools serving grades 9-12 in the 90063 zip code of East Los Angeles, a high-need area where over 90% of students typically qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The standout school in the area is Alliance Morgan McKinzie High, a charter school in the Alliance Morgan McKinzie High District that outperforms others with a 4-star rating, strong graduation rate, and test scores above state averages. The other six schools are part of the Los Angeles Unified district, with five operating as specialized academies at the same campus: Humanitas Academy of Art and Technical at Esteban E. Torres High #4, E. Los Angeles Renaiss Academy at Esteban E. Torres High #2, Engr and Technical Academy at Esteban E. Torres High #3, Esteban Torres East LA Performing Arts Magnet, and Soc Just Leadership Academy at Esteban E. Torres High #5. Among these, the Soc Just Leadership Academy excels in English, while the Engr and Technical Academy showed the most improvement in recent rankings.

While most schools have graduation rates above the state average, mathematics proficiency is a widespread challenge. Chronic absenteeism varies significantly and is closely tied to academic performance, with the small alternative school, Ramona Opportunity High, having the highest absenteeism and most significant performance struggles despite very high per-student spending. Parents should note the considerable variation in performance and resources even among schools serving similar student populations in this area.
