Summary:
The ACE Inspire Academy District consists of a single public charter middle school, ACE Inspire Academy, serving grades 5-8. The school's student population is predominantly Hispanic (93.72%), with a high percentage of students from low-income families (80.75% receive free or reduced-price lunch).
While ACE Inspire Academy was previously ranked 803 out of 894 California middle schools in 2020-2021, its statewide ranking has since declined to 1941 out of 2788 in 2022-2023, with a corresponding decrease in its SchoolDigger rating from 1 star to 2 stars. The school's academic performance, as measured by standardized tests, is significantly below the statewide averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, with proficiency rates ranging from 18.18% to 36.23% in ELA and 16.88% to 20% in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 46.69% to 47.44% and 29.94% to 33.38%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 30.2%, which is substantially higher than the state average.
These findings suggest that the ACE Inspire Academy District faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Addressing issues such as chronic absenteeism, academic support, and access to resources for economically disadvantaged students will be crucial in improving student outcomes and ensuring that the school can better serve the needs of its diverse student population.
