School Overview

New Designs Charter sits in the 90007 zip code, a dense, historically rich corner of South LA just minutes from USC — a neighborhood that's seen a lot of change and carries a strong sense of community identity. The school serves grades 6–12, which means students can build real continuity and relationships over several years, and families who value a smaller, mission-driven environment over a large traditional campus may find that appealing. Academic scores are modest, with English performing relatively stronger than math, so it's worth visiting in person to get a feel for whether the school's culture and support systems are a good match for your student.
