Summary:
The MIT Academy District contains a single high school, MIT Academy, which serves students in grades 9-12. While MIT Academy has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 91.2%, it struggles with a chronic absenteeism rate of 38.4%, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with students scoring slightly above the state average in English Language Arts/Literacy but well below the state average in Mathematics.
MIT Academy's student population includes a high proportion of students from low-income families, with 49.88% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's attendance and academic challenges. However, the school has maintained a consistent statewide ranking between 699 and 886 out of approximately 2,300 California high schools over the past three years, indicating a level of stability in its performance.
Overall, MIT Academy appears to be the only high school option for families in the MIT Academy District. While the school has some areas of strength, such as its English Language Arts/Literacy and Science proficiency, it also faces challenges in Mathematics and attendance that may require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
