Ipakanni Early College Charter

Summary:

Ipakanni Early College Charter is an alternative public charter school located in Oroville, California, serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 63 students. The school is part of the Ipakanni Early College Charter District.

Ipakanni Early College Charter is struggling academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the state and nearby schools. For example, in 2023-2024, only 26.67% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to the state average of 47.04%. In Mathematics, only 9.38% of students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 35.54%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 39.1%, which is significantly higher than the nearby Oak Bridge Academy (38.7%) and CORE Butte Charter (6.0%). Additionally, Ipakanni Early College Charter has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 18.3, which may impact the level of individual attention and support that students receive.

The school's high percentage of students (around 70%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges. Nearby alternative schools, such as HomeTech Charter and Live Oak Alternative, also have lower academic performance compared to the state averages, but their performance is still better than Ipakanni Early College Charter. To improve the school's performance, Ipakanni Early College Charter may need to focus on addressing the root causes of the high chronic absenteeism rate, providing additional academic support and interventions for struggling students, and exploring ways to reduce the student-teacher ratio.

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.
