Summary:

Burton (Phillip and Sala) Academic High is a public high school in San Francisco, California, serving 1,060 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the San Francisco Unified School District, which is ranked 651 out of 1,568 districts in the state.

Burton (Phillip and Sala) Academic High has consistently performed above the state and district averages in English Language Arts/Literacy and Science on the Smarter Balanced Assessments, with 63.39% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in ELA/Literacy in 2023-2024, compared to 55.73% statewide and 62.59% in the district. However, the school's performance in Mathematics has been relatively lower, with only 30.28% of 11th-grade students proficient or better. The school maintains a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.6% to 96.5% over the past five years, and a dropout rate generally lower than nearby schools like O'Connell (John) High, Downtown High, and Marshall (Thurgood) High. However, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 20.2% in 2018-2019 to 37.0% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state and district averages.

While Burton (Phillip and Sala) Academic High generally outperforms nearby schools in academic measures, graduation rates, and dropout rates, it still has room for improvement to reach the level of high-performing schools in the district, such as Asawa (Ruth) SF School of the Arts. The school's relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with over 60% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to the challenges it faces, such as the higher chronic absenteeism rate. Overall, Burton (Phillip and Sala) Academic High is a moderately performing school within the San Francisco Unified School District, with strengths in certain areas but also facing areas for improvement.

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.
