Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter is a higher-need, mid-sized charter elementary school in Los Angeles, California, enrolling 308 students.

Class loads run heavy: 44:1 is larger than about 99% of California schools and 105% above the 21.5:1 state mean, so each teacher carries more students than is typical.

Economic need runs somewhat above the state's typical profile, with 69.5% of students eligible for free meals.

Enrollment of 308 puts it in the smaller third of California schools by headcount.

Its Resource Investment Index trails 98% of the 9,998 California schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.

Among 1,267 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need California schools statewide, it ranks #1,227, in the lower tier once campus size and economic need are matched.

Its student body is predominantly Hispanic or Latino (91% of enrollment), among the less diverse in the state (diversity index 16/100).

Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 52.3% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).

Its district draws 17.4% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.

Among Los Angeles's elementary schools, it stands alongside Wish Community (860 students): Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs heavier classes (44:1 vs 23.2:1).

Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter District is a single-school charter district, so Aspire Inskeep Academy Charter operates independently rather than alongside district-mates.
