Summary:
The AeroSTEM Academy District has one high school, AeroSTEM Academy, serving grades 5–12 and enrolling 116 students. Its latest all-grades results are close to California’s overall subject average, but they conceal a sharp difference between grade levels. The clearest finding is that eighth graders are above state results in all three reported subjects, while eleventh graders are below them in all three.
Among reported grade-level results, eighth grade stands out positively: AeroSTEM Academy is 8 points above California in ELA, 8 points above in math, and 17 points above in science. Eleventh grade is the weakest reported grade relative to the state, trailing by 36 points in ELA, 18 in math, and 17 in science. Across all grades in 2025–26, science is the school’s strongest subject relative to California, at 42% versus 36%, or 6 points higher. ELA is 5 points below the state and math is 4 points below.
Results have shifted since 2024–25: the school’s unweighted average across the three subjects fell from 43% to 40%, while California’s rose from 40% to 41%; the average school–state gap moved from 3 points above to 1 point below the state. ELA drove most of that change: the school’s score dropped 12 points, turning a 7-point advantage into a 5-point deficit. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern to note: it was 40% in 2025–26, compared with 18% statewide. SchoolDigger ranks the school 1,591st of 2,137 schools, in the 26th percentile, and gives it 1 star. For additional context, its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 18.7, and 77% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25. Because the district has only one school, there is no school-to-school comparison.
