GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Los Angeles Senior High School is full of amazing people who have helped me a lot but the actual school programs and the things they have to offer are not nearly as good as other schools.

My experience throughout high school has filled with many different experiences. One of the great things that made my high school experience mainly great is the people like the teachers and staff, while I do not get along with all the adults at school there have been some that really made my experience better indirectly. I believe what the school lacks is events for students and sport equipment.
