Although the school's overall performance is impressive, there are a few areas where it could potentially improve, such as reducing its chronic absenteeism rate of 16.7%, which is higher than the state average but still relatively low for a school of its size. Additionally, the school could focus on further boosting mathematics proficiency, particularly in the upper grades. Nonetheless, Baypoint Preparatory Academy - San Diego's success could serve as a model for other schools, particularly those serving similar student populations, to emulate in order to improve academic outcomes.
