Shasta Collegiate Academy

Summary:

Shasta Collegiate Academy is a public high school located in Redding, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 183 students. The school's performance has been mixed over the years, with fluctuations in its statewide ranking and academic metrics compared to nearby schools.

Shasta Collegiate Academy has shown stronger performance among male students compared to female students, and its graduation rate has improved from 73.1% in 2020-2021 to 91.2% in 2022-2023. However, the school has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 32.0% in 2022-2023 to 71.9% in 2020-2021, which is significantly higher than the nearby Enterprise High and Shasta High. Academically, Shasta Collegiate Academy has shown mixed performance, outperforming the Shasta Union High School District and the state of California in English Language Arts/Literacy for 11th grade, but underperforming in Mathematics for the same grade level.

The school's performance may be influenced by factors such as its relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 46.99% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, and its higher student-teacher ratio compared to nearby comprehensive high schools. Additionally, the nearby charter schools, such as Shasta Charter Academy and University Preparatory, have consistently outperformed Shasta Collegiate Academy in academic metrics and statewide rankings.

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.
