| Abstract | Like many large districts in urban U.S. cities, L.A. Unified struggles to produce strong results for all students. On 2015-16 end-of-year state tests, 60 percent of students did not meet state standards in English language arts (ELA). Students fared even worse in math: 70 percent performed below grade level. High-need students are struggling the most: 95 percent of English language learners performed below grade level in both math and ELA; among economically disadvantaged students, 66 percent performed below grade level in ELA and 76 percent in math. Eleven years ago, outcomes for students were even bleaker. A 2006 study found that the district's graduation rate was at 44 percent, placing L.A. Unified sixth from the bottom of the nation's 50 largest school districts in graduation rates. That's when the Partnership for Los Angeles Schools entered the scene. As an independent nonprofit organization with a mission "to transform schools and revolutionize school systems to empower all students with a high-quality education," the Partnership has worked since 2007 to improve some of Los Angeles' lowest-performing schools and has achieved strong results. The overwhelming majority--about 90 percent of its schools--have improved student outcomes, and 60 percent have improved student outcomes significantly. Most notably, the high schools that joined the Partnership have increased graduation rates to more than 80 percent, on average, with graduation rates at four of the five Partnership high schools exceeding the district rate in 2016.
