ranked #1,508 statewide · #183 of 240 in Los Angeles Unified
New Village Girls Academy scores 35 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 30th percentile of 2,160 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).
Measures test performance, attendance, and climate — not arts, community, or your kid. How we score →
Most rating sites would stop at “25% proficient” and call it done. New Village Girls Academy deserves a closer read. The school sits in Los Angeles, where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
As a charter, New Village Girls Academy enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
