The California School Campus Database records Boys Academic Leadership Academy and George Washington Preparatory High on this campus too; it gives each school the whole campus, so this drawing doesn’t show which buildings each uses.

Drawn from OpenStreetMap, with building heights from LA County, inside the campus outline from the California School Campus Database (2025). Volunteers map it, so a new building may be missing. Buildings with no mapped height are drawn one storey high.

Schools maintain a closed campus policy. For students’ safety, visitors may enter a campus only with the school’s official permission; this drawing implies no permission to enter.

Common questions

How do I get in?

Ask Los Angeles Unified how a transfer here works. Students come here from another high school to finish it, by their own choice or by district referral. Evidence ↓

How many students reached the top test level here?

In grade 11, spring 2026, no student scored Advanced in English (reading and writing). 91% scored below the standard in English. Evidence ↓

How often do students miss school or get suspended?

93 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26 (50 of 54), meaning they missed 10% or more of school days. At the average California continuation high school we score, 74 in 100 were. 0 of 71 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26, against 6.3% at the average California continuation high school we score. Evidence ↓

Academic achievement

How did students here do on state tests?

9% of the 11 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English.

State tests (CAASPP), grade 11, spring 2026

In grade 11, spring 2026, 9% of the 11 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English, against 13% at California continuation high schools. Fewer than 30 students tested, so one year can swing a lot; ask how results looked in other years.

From spring 2026, the state calls its top two levels “Proficient or Advanced” (formerly “Met or Exceeded”).

What you can do

Who can act on Ellington (Duke) High’s results?

The state has Ellington (Duke) High in its most intensive support; Los Angeles Unified’s board decides its plan.

What has the state flagged?

2025–26 is its 4th year in a row in this support. The state named it for its graduation rate. This support comes with a school improvement plan, which must use approaches with evidence behind them and look at how money and staff are divided among schools. Ask the principal to see the school improvement plan.

Federal designation under the Every Student Succeeds Act, 2025–26. Source

The state is giving Los Angeles Unified extra help in 2026. It qualified on the 2025 California School Dashboard. The county office must help the district for at least three years, including a review of its yearly plan.

Extra help for Los Angeles Unified: CDE’s assistance status file for the 2025 California School Dashboard. Source

When is the plan set, and how can you take part?

Los Angeles Unified’s board must adopt its yearly plan (LCAP) by July 1, after at least one public hearing at an earlier meeting.

How to take part

Watch the board’s agenda: the hearing is posted at least 72 hours ahead.
Send written comments on the actions and spending the plan proposes.
Raise questions through the district’s parent advisory committee; the superintendent must answer its comments in writing.

About the survey and these figuresWho answers, what we show, and how a theme figure is made

Los Angeles Unified School District, School Experience Survey 2025–26 (researcher file). Students in grades 4–12 take it; some questions go only to older grades.

LAUSD publishes no minimum number of answers. We show a question only when at least 20 people answered it, and a group only when at least 10% of it responded, so the answers speak for more than the few who chose to reply. LAUSD’s figures cover all its schools at each level, so they aren’t shown beside this school.

Fewer than 20 people answered each family question here, so those answers aren’t shown.

Fewer than 20 people answered each staff question here, so those answers aren’t shown.

Each row shows the percentage its label describes. For a theme, such as one marked “average of 5 questions”, we average the percentages for its questions, the way LAUSD averages its own topics. Each lane lists every question with its own percentage.

Scope Score by year2018–19 to 2024–25 · each year’s inputs, and the score for each year we could verify

The 2024–25 Scope Score uses the state’s college-or-career readiness measure, 2024–25, and is not published for this school. Earlier scores are shown under the earlier formula. The two formulas differ, so their scores do not form one trend.

Scope Score each year it was calculated

School year	Scope Score	Percentile	Rank	Comparison group
2018–19	12	10	#306	California continuation high schools · 343 schools · earlier formula
2021–22	12	8	#305	California continuation high schools · 335 schools · earlier formula
2022–23	11	7	#320	California continuation high schools · 346 schools · earlier formula
2023–24	12	9	#302	California continuation high schools · 332 schools · earlier formula

2024–25 has records on file but no Scope Score we could verify against that year’s source files, so no score is shown for it.

Earlier-formula years are retrospective calculations using earlier test results and current school levels and comparison classes. Each year's rank and percentile use that year's measured school group. They do not form a trend across different score formulas.

The earlier high-school formula uses 2024–25 graduation records. Its readiness input uses the 2024–25 AP pathway share among Prepared students when available; otherwise it uses 2024–25 A-G completion. A reported zero remains zero. These inputs do not describe graduation or readiness in the earlier assessment years. The current formula instead uses the state’s college-or-career readiness measure (its overall Prepared rate).

Historical ELPAC inputs are absent from these calculations. Missing factor weights are redistributed proportionally among available factors. Adjusted climate values are SchoolScope scoring inputs, distinct from the state’s reported rates.

Graduation and readinessstate records · each rate for its own year and class of students

Measure	Source record
This school · CCI overall Prepared	CDE College/Career Indicator · CCI source year 2025 · all students · all students in the current four-year graduation cohort, plus only Prepared fifth-year graduates from the prior cohort. Overall CCI Prepared rate 0% · numerator 0 students classified Prepared · denominator 29 CCI students.

AP pathway among CCI Prepared studentsCDE College/Career Indicator · CCI source year 2025 · all students · AP-pathway numerator 0 · denominator 0 (CCI Prepared students). Share among Prepared students: not calculable, because no student here was classified Prepared. This measure uses Prepared students as its denominator, not the whole CCI cohort; it is not an AP exam-taking rate or a count of AP courses offered. That cohort includes all students in the current four-year graduation cohort plus only Prepared fifth-year graduates from the prior cohort. In 2025 the pathway accepts two qualifying AP exams, two qualifying AP courses, or a combination of one of each in different subjects.

SchoolScope withholds the high-school score and rank because the CDE CCI cohort has fewer than 30 students. A CDE-reported rate, including a true 0%, remains source evidence; it is not a zero score. The school CCI rate has its own student cohort and source year.

How the California mean was selected

SchoolScope starts with its selected California finance records, not every NCES California district. For FY 2020–21, it calculates an unweighted mean of NCES F-33 current expense per pupil. District records contribute once, regardless of enrollment. The calculation keeps records with positive per-pupil current expense, enrollment over 100, CCD agency type 1, and a recorded district name; it excludes names ending in County Office of Education, Department of Education, or Superintendent of Schools. This is a SchoolScope calculation, not a state-published spending average.

Total	$10,915,063,400	100.00%	100%

These shares are our arithmetic: each group’s dollars divided by the $10,915,063,400 total of the groups shown, rounded to whole percents by largest remainder so they add up to 100. Dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar, so they can differ from the total by a dollar. SchoolScope groups district-level CDE SACS UserGL actuals from Fund 01, using operating objects 1000–5999 and excluding retiree benefits, food and community services, facilities acquisition, other outgo, and nonagency goals. These shares use that filtered total; they do not exactly break down CDE's official current expense per ADA above. The school-level ESSA figure uses a separate source.
