Summary:
The Crown Preparatory Academy District consists of a single middle school, Crown Preparatory Academy, which serves grades 5-8. The school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages, ranking in the lower half of California middle schools and earning a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Crown Preparatory Academy's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates on standardized tests falling well below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 33.88% to 45.57%, compared to the state average of 45.95% to 47.37%. In Mathematics, the proficiency rates ranged from 11.5% to 25.61%, compared to the state average of 31.57% to 35.02%. The school's performance on science assessments (CAST) is also below the state average.
In addition to the low academic performance, Crown Preparatory Academy faces other challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 37.4% and a student population with significant economic disadvantages, as evidenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (94.9%). These factors may contribute to the school's struggles and suggest that targeted interventions and support could be crucial in helping Crown Preparatory Academy improve student outcomes and provide a high-quality education to its students.
