Summary

Altus Schools Mirus Charter is a public charter high school serving 292 students in grades 7-12 in Hesperia, CA, ranking in the 48th percentile statewide for the 2024-2025 school year.

This school serves a high-need population and, while its academic proficiency rates are below state averages, it outperforms other local charter schools with similar students, such as Options for Youth-Victor Valley Charter. A standout strength is its dramatic improvement in student attendance, reducing chronic absenteeism to 16.5%, which is now better than the state average and significantly better than nearby traditional schools like Hesperia High (40.8%). However, the school's graduation rate of 51.3% is much lower than those traditional high schools, though it is higher than other charter alternatives like Alta Vista Innovation High.

Notably, Altus Schools Mirus Charter operates with much lower per-student spending than schools in the Hesperia Unified district but achieves competitive results. Performance has fluctuated year-to-year, and the school shows particular effectiveness with its economically disadvantaged students. In the broader local landscape, it represents a mid-performing option, sitting between higher-performing traditional schools and several struggling charter and traditional schools in the area.
