The SSC is the decision-making council for all programs funded through the Consolidated Application (ConAp). The SSC is responsible for the development of the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA), in consultation with the English Learner Advisory Committee, other relevant stakeholders and, where applicable, the Local School Leadership Council.
The Los Angeles High School Alumni Association, a California, tax-exempt, not-for-profit corporation, was founded in 1881 by the school's first graduates. It is the owner and exclusive licensee of the name Los Angeles High School Alumni Association. It was founded with the mission of maintaining through alumni fellowship the emerging ideals and aspirations of what was to become known to students who experienced it as "The Spirit of the Hill."
Los Angeles High School's Magnet program is based upon a Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM) theme. It is an interdisciplinary, standards-based, inquiry-based, and real-world problem-based programs that teach students about STEAM-related subjects. These programs are geared to the student's interest in science, computer technology, and mathematics.
I am honored to be here. I am a parent of two amazing boys (12 and 9 years old) and they both proudly attend LAUSD schools. I have been a teacher (13 years). I have taught K-6th grade and have been a social emotional counselor for 12 years. I have been a EL Designee and helped many students to reclassify from the English Language Development program.
Our Magnet Program highly encourages students to take advantage of our AP and Honors class offerings. Studies have shown that the rigor of a student's high school curriculum is the single best predictor of success in college. Student performance in college preparatory classes is the most important factor in the admission decision.

This school is run by totalitarian dirt bags who think that they are doing what is right but in reality is hurting the schools reputation for generations to come. I attended this school all my 4 years and I saw this school fall apart in my very poor eyes. The administrators are absolute worse and they scared off one the best teachers and counselors. This school has hope with the wrong leaders, I bet LAUSD doesn't even know this school exists and was the first High school in LA but then again, LAUSD are bunch communists...

This school is ehhh.They have Gala in here which is a school for all girls from grades 6-12 so they took up half of the whole school.Im not saying that it is good because that means there is less classrooms for the other students from LA high.If you know you are a good student and won't follow the bad ones I would say you can go because you don't let people manipulate you and their bad actions.For example my sister went to this school and she came out great because she didn't get into drama and didn't hang out with those ghetto people.Because most girls at that school come out pregnant or turn

The absolute best time in life; exploring your inner youth and getting to know what you can do and what you need to learn
I was there and Mr Francis was the best instructor for me and along with Mr McLeod made a impression on me to linger to this day
Getting to turn 50 soon, you may ask yourself; how and why
remember those times; well simply put "It was them two teachers
whom personally gave me a sense of direction to better myself everyday in things that I don't have knowledge about, go seek them
and learn if you will need them later on in life and if so now you got the knowledge and input

The oldest public school in Southern California. Founded in 1873, the school has been at the Olympic and Rimpau celebrating 100 years in 2017. The school also houses the STEM MAGNET program which when you compare to other STEM programs test scores they excel. They have many programs at LA HIGH that werent available when I was student here. I am a proud Alumni of 1988 and I am proud to say my daughter is currently a student here at LA High also who will graduate in 2018. Many things have changed but their are many programs that are offered at LA. Looking at these reviews, I would say that you would
