Old Town Academy K-8 Charter District


Summary:

The Old Town Academy K-8 Charter is the sole school in the Old Town Academy K-8 Charter District in San Diego, California, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 239 students.

This charter school stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state averages on Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST (California Science Test), particularly in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 52.99% in ELA/Literacy End of Course and 51.47% in Mathematics End of Course, compared to the state averages of 47.04% and 35.54%, respectively. The school has also maintained a high statewide ranking, placing in the top half of California elementary schools, and the Old Town Academy K-8 Charter District is ranked 343 out of 1,568 districts in the state.

However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 22.0% in the 2022-2023 school year is higher than the state average, which could be an area of concern. Additionally, the school's relatively low percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (17.57%) suggests that it may serve a more affluent student population, which could contribute to its strong academic performance.
