Summary

Children’s Community Charter is a K–8 school in Paradise with 220 students, serving families in a community near other schools in Paradise and Chico. Its 2025–26 results vary by subject and grade: science is a clear strength, and fourth grade stands out, while third-grade ELA is especially weak. The most important takeaway is that science is strong, but ELA—particularly in third grade—is the school’s clearest academic concern.

Among nearby schools with current all-grade results, the school ranks 2nd of 7 in science, 4th of 7 in math and 5th of 7 in ELA. Science proficiency was 41%, above the state’s 36% and Paradise Unified’s 26%; it was second to Sierra View Elementary among nearby schools. Math was 38%, roughly level with the state’s 38% and above the district’s 26%. ELA was 38%, about 12 points below the state’s 49% and close to the district’s 37%. Grade-level results show the contrast: fourth-grade math was 67%, compared with 42% statewide, while third-grade ELA was 12%, versus 44% for both the state and district. Attendance is a relative bright spot: chronic absenteeism was 17%, below the district’s 26% and the state’s 18%.

The school’s academic results cannot yet show a trend: test scores are available for 2025–26 only. SchoolDigger gives it a 49th-percentile statewide rank and 2 stars, down 10 percentile points from 2017–18 and 35 points from 2008–09; its 2025–26 ranking for effectiveness in serving White Students was at the 19th percentile, 30 points below its overall ranking. The latest student–teacher ratio supplied is 22 students per teacher in 2017–18; the school’s historical free/reduced lunch eligible rate was 43% that year, but no current low-income measure is supplied. These older figures, the single year of test results and unavailable seventh-grade scores limit current comparisons.

Some in the school administration discriminate and spread malicious rumors against families. This is unfair and undeserved treatment from school staff. There isn't much tolerance for those who don't fit into their personal clique type. Close Quote
