Summary

Sacramento New Technology Early College High is a small public high school of about 155 students in grades 9-12 within the Sacramento City Unified district, offering a unique program where students can earn college credits while completing their diploma.

The school presents a complex picture for parents: it graduates an impressive 93.9% of its students, a rate higher than the district and state averages and competitive with top local schools like West Campus. However, its standardized test scores in English and Math are significantly lower than most nearby schools, including Luther Burbank High and C. K. McClatchy High. This suggests the school's project-based, early-college model may prioritize different pathways to graduation over traditional test performance.

Other important considerations include a chronic absenteeism rate (28.8%) that is higher than the district average, and a notable performance gap where female students at the school rank much lower compared to male students than is typical. The school receives more funding per student than most district peers, but this has not translated to higher test scores. Compared to other small specialty schools, it has a much higher graduation rate than American Legion High (Continuation) but higher absenteeism than The MET.
