Public, Alternative Grades K-12
Summary

John F. Cruikshank Junior is an alternative public school located in Stockton, California, serving grades KG-12 with a total enrollment of 43 students. The school is part of the San Joaquin County Office of Education district and serves a predominantly Hispanic and African American student population.

John F. Cruikshank Junior stands out from nearby schools like Independence, California Connections Academy Northern California, and ABLE Charter with its significantly lower graduation rates, ranging from 25.0% to 41.3% over the past 5 years, and much higher dropout rates, ranging from 32.3% to 50.0%. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.0% to 44.9%, and test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics that are significantly lower than the San Joaquin County Office of Education and California state averages.

The high percentage of Hispanic (51.16%) and African American (27.91%) students at John F. Cruikshank Junior, along with the school's very high percentage of students (over 90%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggest that the school serves a more diverse and economically disadvantaged population. Additionally, the school's proximity to other alternative schools in the area, such as San Joaquin County Community and San Joaquin County Special Education, may contribute to the challenges faced by the school in providing a high-quality education to its students.
