Oak Bridge Academy

Q: Is Oak Bridge Academy a good school?

Oak Bridge Academy ranks 1251 st of 2323 California alternative schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Oak Bridge Academy is an alternative public virtual school serving grades K-12 in Chico, California, with 130 students enrolled. The school is part of the Chico Unified School District, which is ranked 769 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oak Bridge Academy has performed well in some key metrics compared to nearby schools. The school has had very high four-year graduation rates, with 93.8% in 2022-2023 and 100% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the nearby Oakdale school, which had a 71.4% graduation rate in 2022-2023. Oak Bridge Academy's dropout rates have also been low, at 6.3% in 2022-2023 and 0% in 2021-2022, compared to Oakdale's much higher rate of 28.6% in 2022-2023. However, the school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally lower than the Chico Unified district and the state of California averages.

Oak Bridge Academy serves a population with a relatively low socioeconomic status, with 69.23% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023. The school also has a high rate of chronic absenteeism, at 38.7% in 2022-2023 and 44.5% in 2021-2022, which is lower than some nearby schools like Oakdale (64.7%) and Butte County Community (55.6%), but still a concern. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 16.3 in 2022-2023 suggests it may have the resources to provide more individualized attention to students.

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.

Students eligible for free or discounted lunch at Oak Bridge Academy

2022	238	10.5	22.6	63.9
2023	130	7.9	16.3	69.2

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.
