Summary:
The 90247 zip code area of Los Angeles is home to 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools and 2 middle schools, all part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. While the district as a whole is ranked 871 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, the schools in this area show significant disparities in academic performance, with some standout schools and others struggling to meet state and district averages.
Denker Avenue Elementary and Environmental Charter Middle - Gardena are the top-performing schools in the area, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, other schools, such as KIPP Generations Academy, have significantly lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism rates, which may be contributing to their academic challenges.
The data also reveals high levels of economic disadvantage in the area, with the majority of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This, combined with the disparities in academic performance, suggests that the schools in the 90247 zip code may benefit from targeted interventions and support to ensure all students have access to a high-quality education and the resources they need to succeed.
