Summary

Crossroads Charter Academy is a K–12 alternative school in Hanford, California, with 141 students. Its 2025–2026 results show a mix of academic and completion indicators: 36% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 7% in math and 18% in science, while the graduation rate was 96% and chronic absenteeism was 12%. The clearest academic concern is math: proficiency was 32 percentage points below the state rate and 18 points below the district rate.

Compared with the state, Crossroads was 13 points behind in ELA and 18 points behind in science; its science result was close to the district’s, at 18% versus 17%. ELA was also relatively close to the district, at 36% versus 39%. Among nearby schools with reported 2025–2026 all-grades results, Crossroads had the highest ELA score: 36%, compared with 7% at Kings County Special Education and 0% at Special Education. Its 7% in math was between those schools’ 0% and 7% results; nearby science results were not available for a meaningful comparison. Graduation is a notable strength: Crossroads’ 96% rate was above the state’s 88% and the district’s 74%, while its dropout rate was 0%.

ELA has improved over time, rising 8 percentage points from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, and its gap with the state narrowed by 5 points. Math proficiency fell by 1 point as the state improved, widening the gap by 5 points; science rose 2 points, but its gap with the state widened by 3. The supplied SchoolDigger ranking is for the district, not the school: Armona Union Elementary ranks 514th of 968 districts, in the 47th percentile, with 2 stars. Crossroads’ 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 19.8, compared with a nearby-school average of 17.0. In 2024–2025, 83% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible; this is an income-related measure, not an explanation for the school’s results.
