Crescent Valley Public Charter II is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, particularly when compared to nearby schools. The school has had low four-year graduation rates, ranging from 18.8% to 24.4%, which is significantly lower than the state average of around 85%. Additionally, the school has high dropout rates, reaching 22.9% in 2022-2023, much higher than the state average. Crescent Valley Public Charter II also has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.2% in 2022-2023, more than double the state average. The school's test scores are consistently well below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels, with only 28.83% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to the state average of 55.73%, and a proficiency rate of only 3.61% in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 27.9%.

The high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 86.18% to 87.63%, and the relatively high student-teacher ratio may be contributing factors to the school's poor performance.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
