Summary

Crescent View South II is a large, K-12 alternative public school in Fresno, California, serving 1,260 students within its own district and a community where nearly 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school faces significant challenges, with a graduation rate of 27.4% and a chronic absenteeism rate of 60.2%, both far below state averages and major barriers to student success. While its test scores are low overall, its performance in Science is a relative strength compared to other local alternative schools like Ambassador Phillip V. Sanchez II Public Charter and Big Picture Educational Academy. The data shows a clear link across all these schools: where chronic absenteeism is high, graduation and proficiency rates are critically low.

It's important for parents to know that "alternative" schools in the area serve very different populations. While Crescent View South II struggles, other nearby alternatives like Endeavor Charter and Central Online Home have graduation rates above 93% and very low absenteeism. Even the closest school, Central Unified Alternative/Opportunity, has a higher graduation rate, suggesting different approaches exist for supporting similar students.
