Summary

Charter Home Study Academy is a K-8 charter school serving 295 students in El Dorado, California, operating under the El Dorado County Office of Education and consistently ranking in the top 35% of schools statewide.

The school has standout strengths in maintaining an excellent attendance record, with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 3.2% that is far better than most nearby schools like Gold Oak Elementary (21.2%) and Walt Tyler Elementary (20.0%), and in delivering exceptional science instruction, where its 58% proficiency rate significantly outpaces the state average. It also shows notable effectiveness in supporting students from low-income families, achieving competitive academic results despite a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students than some higher-performing neighbors like California Montessori Project-Shingle Springs Campus.

While the school's overall academic performance is solid and consistent, it experiences a noticeable dip in 6th-grade English scores before rebounding strongly in 7th and 8th grades. Compared to the surrounding landscape of schools, which includes high performers like Rescue Elementary and Buckeye Elementary, Charter Home Study Academy offers a reliably mid-to-upper-tier option that uses its resources efficiently to foster a strong culture of attendance and science achievement.
