Old Town Academy K-8 Charter District

The Old Town Academy K-8 Charter District in San Diego consists of a single school, Old Town Academy K-8 Charter, serving grades K-8 with about 194 students.

This charter school consistently performs above the California state average in core subjects, with a particularly strong showing in mathematics where student proficiency is over 18 points higher than the state. Performance is especially high in the upper grades, with 7th and 8th graders excelling in English Language Arts. The school maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio and is well-funded, which supports its academic environment.

While the school excels overall, there is a noted dip in 5th-grade proficiency in English and Science, which is below the state average for that grade level. The chronic absenteeism rate is also slightly higher than the state average, an area for potential improvement. For parents, the school represents a strong academic option with a track record of success, particularly for students in the middle school grades, within a single-school charter district.
