Summary

MAAC Community Charter is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Chula Vista, California, with a student enrollment of 155. Despite being located in the Chula Vista area, which is home to several higher-performing public high schools, MAAC Community Charter has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of California high schools in recent years.

The school's academic performance is extremely low, with 0% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics for 11th-grade students, compared to the state averages of 56.96% and 30.5%, respectively. In science, the school's 12th-grade proficiency rate was only 1.22%, far below the state average of 28.02%. MAAC Community Charter's four-year graduation rates have ranged from 28.2% to 87.0%, significantly lower than the state average, and its dropout rates have been high, ranging from 7.8% to 60.7%.

The school's challenges extend beyond academic performance, with chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 20.4% to 43.0%, much higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's performance is particularly low for vulnerable student subgroups, such as English Language Learners and students from low-income backgrounds, raising concerns about equity and the school's ability to support the diverse needs of its student population. Despite relatively high spending per student, ranging from $14,476 to $23,198 in recent years, MAAC Community Charter has been unable to translate this investment into improved student outcomes.
