East Hollywood High

Summary:

East Hollywood High is a public magnet charter high school located in West Valley City, Utah, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 283 students. While the school has a diverse student population, it consistently ranks among the lowest-performing high schools in the state, with academic performance significantly below the state averages.

East Hollywood High faces significant challenges, including low academic performance, high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools. For example, Vanguard Academy, a public charter school just 1.85 miles away, consistently ranks among the top 30-41 high schools in the state and outperforms East Hollywood High across all academic measures. Additionally, the school's spending per student ($9,356 in 2018-2019) is lower than the nearby schools, such as Granite Technical Institute ($45,780) and Innovations High School ($6,896), which may contribute to the school's lower academic performance.

Addressing the challenges faced by East Hollywood High will likely require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, increased funding, and collaboration with the local community and education authorities. While the school's diverse student population is a strength, the consistently low rankings, below-average test scores, and high free and reduced lunch rates suggest that the school may be struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students.

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.
