AeroSTEM Academy District

The AeroSTEM Academy District in California has only one school, AeroSTEM Academy, a public charter high school serving grades 5-12 with a total enrollment of 133 students. The school faces significant challenges, with a 3-star rating, low academic performance, high dropout and chronic absenteeism rates, and a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.

AeroSTEM Academy's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is generally below the statewide averages in California, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's low proficiency rates, ranging from around 20% to 40%, suggest that a substantial portion of students are not meeting grade-level standards. Additionally, the school's high dropout rate of 60% and chronic absenteeism rate of 34.5% are concerning and may be contributing factors to the low academic performance.

With over 72% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, AeroSTEM Academy serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges. This high percentage of economically disadvantaged students may be a contributing factor to the school's academic and attendance struggles. Overall, the data suggests that AeroSTEM Academy is facing significant challenges in terms of academic achievement, student engagement, and supporting its socioeconomically disadvantaged population, indicating a need for substantial improvement and targeted interventions to support student success.
