Summary

Delta Keys Charter is a small, K-12 alternative public school in Tracy, California, serving about 125 students within the New Jerusalem Elementary district and focusing on non-traditional educational settings for a high-need population.

The most critical finding about this school is its alarmingly high dropout rate of 55.6%, which is far worse than the state average and nearby schools like Delta Charter (4.3%) and Valley View Charter Prep (6.7%). This leads to a very low graduation rate of 44.4%. Surprisingly, students who are enrolled attend regularly, with chronic absenteeism at just 2.6%, suggesting the school engages students well but ultimately loses a large portion before graduation.

Academically, the school shows a relative strength in mathematics, with proficiency rates near the state average and higher than some comparable schools. However, performance is volatile year-to-year. With per-student spending above average and a moderate class size, the school has resources, but these are not translating into better graduation outcomes compared to other alternative schools with similar student populations, such as Tracy Independent Study Charter.
