EPIC Charter (Excellence Performance Innovation Citizenship)

Summary:

EPIC Charter is a virtual public charter school serving grades K-12 in Anaheim, California, with an enrollment of 1,005 students. While the school aims to provide an innovative educational approach, it faces several challenges that set it apart from nearby alternative and charter schools.

EPIC Charter's performance lags behind many of its counterparts, with a lower four-year graduation rate of 69.2% and a high dropout rate of 30.8% in 2022-2023, significantly higher than the state averages. The school also struggles with chronic absenteeism, with a rate of 28.6% in 2022-2023, much higher than the state average of 16.1%. Academically, EPIC Charter's proficiency rates on standardized tests are generally lower than state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with only 48.98% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 55.73% statewide, and just 14.29% proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 27.9% statewide.

In contrast, nearby alternative and charter schools, such as Orange County Classical Academy, Magnolia Science Academy Santa Ana, and Buena Vista Virtual Academy, have outperformed EPIC Charter in most subject areas and grade levels. The virtual school model, combined with EPIC Charter's relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (41.09%), may be contributing factors to the school's challenges in student engagement and academic success.

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.

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Dept of Education.

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.
