Summary:
The Capitol Collegiate Academy District consists of a single public charter school, Capitol Collegiate Academy, serving 518 students in grades K-8 in Sacramento, California.
Capitol Collegiate Academy stands out for its exceptionally low rate of chronic student absenteeism, at just 6.1% compared to the state average of 19.4%, which is a significant strength especially given the economic challenges faced by many of its students. The school invests more per student than the typical California school, and its performance varies considerably by grade, with 6th and 8th graders notably outperforming state averages in English Language Arts, while 4th grade scores are much lower.
Overall, the school's academic proficiency rates in core subjects like English, math, and science are currently below state averages, and its statewide ranking has declined in recent years. This creates a notable situation where strong attendance and higher-than-average spending have not yet translated to above-average academic outcomes. Parents may want to investigate the reasons behind the large differences in performance between grade levels and the school's specific strategies for improving mathematics instruction.
