Summary

The Language Academy of Sacramento is a public charter elementary school serving 616 students in grades K-8 in Sacramento, California. The school is part of the The Language Academy of Sacramento District, which is ranked 630 out of 1,565 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

The Language Academy of Sacramento has faced some challenges in recent years, including a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 9.7% in 2023-2024 to 24.9% in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average. The school's test scores are generally below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 18.18% in 4th grade English Language Arts/Literacy to 57.58% in 7th grade, compared to the state average of 44.21% to 49.65%. However, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with English Language Learner students performing significantly better than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, The Language Academy of Sacramento performs better than some, such as Aspire Capitol Heights Academy and Oak Ridge Elementary, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Phoebe A. Hearst Elementary and David Lubin Elementary. The school's relatively high spending per student, at $14,062 in 2023-2024, suggests that it may need to re-evaluate its resource allocation to better support student learning.
