Summary

Elk Grove Charter is a small public charter high school serving grades 7-12 and approximately 262 students within the Elk Grove Unified district, operating with a notably lower budget per student than other local schools.

This school has a clear strength in helping students graduate, with a rate of 91.5% that exceeds both the district and state averages and is higher than several nearby comprehensive high schools like Elk Grove High and Valley High. However, its academic proficiency scores in subjects like math and English are below the district average, and it faces a significant challenge with chronic student absenteeism, which is higher than at most traditional high schools in the area.

When compared to other charter and alternative options, Elk Grove Charter sits in a middle tier, performing better than schools like Calvine High or Rio Cazadero High but below higher-ranked schools such as Monterey Trail High. Its overall state ranking has been volatile in recent years, and it is located very close to the high-performing Franklin High, offering families in the same neighborhood two very different public school options.
