Summary:
The SAVA - Sacramento Academy and Vocational Academy - EGUSD Di consists of a single, unique 7-12 grade school in Elk Grove, SAVA - Sacramento Academic and Vocational Academy - EGUSD, which combines academic and vocational training for its 360 students.
This school serves a community with high economic need and has shown recent improvement, moving from a 1-star to a 2-star state ranking in the past year. However, significant academic challenges remain, particularly in mathematics where proficiency is dramatically below state averages. Performance in English and science is also below average, though the graduation rate of 52.7% is a key area of concern alongside higher-than-average chronic absenteeism and dropout rates.
Despite these challenges, the school's above-average per-student spending and specialized vocational focus represent a distinct educational model. The recent upward trend in its statewide ranking suggests potential positive momentum. For parents, this school offers a career-oriented pathway but requires careful consideration of its academic support systems, especially in core subjects like math, and its overall student engagement and completion rates.
