Summary

Aspen Ridge Public is a small public high school serving grades 7-12 with 246 students in Fresno, CA, and it has shown a remarkable and rapid improvement in its statewide academic ranking.

The school's most compelling story is its dramatic jump in performance, moving from the 33rd percentile to the 61st percentile in statewide rankings in just one year, which is a significant positive turnaround. This improvement is especially notable for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. While the school's overall test scores are still below state averages, with mathematics being a particular challenge, it excels in specific areas like 11th grade English and 10th grade science. The school operates with a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which can allow for more individual attention, and it does this while spending less per student than most nearby schools, including Crescent View West Public Charter.

Aspen Ridge outperforms its own Aspen Ridge Public District and several neighboring schools like Carter G. Woodson Public Charter and Crescent View West Public Charter, though it trails high-performing charters such as Career Technical Education Charter. A key area for continued growth is chronic absenteeism, which, while lower than at McLane High, remains higher than the state average. Overall, Aspen Ridge represents a school on a strong upward trajectory, effectively serving its community with efficient resources.
