Assurance Learning Academy District

The Assurance Learning Academy District consists of a single, large public high school, Assurance Learning Academy, serving grades 8-12 with over 3,000 students in Lancaster, California.

This school faces significant challenges, with academic performance far below state averages, particularly in mathematics where only 3.3% of students are proficient. Student attendance is a major concern, as chronic absenteeism affects nearly two-thirds of the student body, which is more than triple the state average. These factors contribute to an extremely low graduation rate of 18.1% and a high dropout rate of 25.3%, indicating that most students do not complete their high school education here.

Despite per-student spending slightly above the California average, the school's outcomes are among the lowest in the state, consistently ranking in the bottom 20th percentile. The large student population and high student-to-teacher ratio may limit individualized support. For parents, this data suggests the school requires substantial, systemic improvement to address the interconnected crises in attendance, academic achievement, and student retention.
