Summary

Calvine High is a 9–12 school in Sacramento, serving 137 students in Elk Grove Unified. Its most important challenge is that 2025–26 test proficiency was at or near the bottom among nearby district high schools in every reported subject: 3% in English language arts (ELA) and 0% in both math and science.

There is no clear academic strength compared with local, district, or state results. Calvine’s ELA proficiency was 3%, compared with 49% statewide, 54% in the district, and a 46% average among nearby district high schools; math was 0%, versus 38% statewide, 44% in the district, and a 29% nearby-school average. Science was also 0%, compared with 36% statewide, 37% in the district, and a 30% nearby-school average; that tied Rio Cazadero High for the lowest local result. Attendance is another concern: chronic absenteeism was 68%, versus 22% in the district and 18% statewide. Only Rio Cazadero High and William Daylor High had higher rates among the nine nearby district schools.

Results have declined overall: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell from 25% to 3%, math from 3% to 0%, and science from 2% to 0%, while state results rose in all three subjects. SchoolDigger rated Calvine 0 stars in 2025–26, ranking it 2,120th of 2,137 California schools, at the 1st percentile; its ranking fell from the 18th percentile in 2022–23. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 13:1, below the nearby district-school average of 19.3:1. Also in 2024–25, 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with a 66% average among nearby district peers; California provides free meals statewide, so eligibility does not indicate whether students can receive meals. As a notable exception, SchoolDigger’s statewide effectiveness ranking for English Language Learner students was at the 53rd percentile in 2018–19 and the 66th in 2022–23, compared with the school’s overall 10th and 18th percentiles in those years.
