Summary

Sonoma County Court is a small K–12 alternative school in Santa Rosa, California, serving 42 students in the Sonoma County Office of Education district. Its latest all-grade test results are above its district’s reported rates in English language arts and math, but the most important finding is that proficiency remains far below California’s rates.

Academics are a relative strength compared with the district, but a concern compared with the state and nearby schools. In 2025–26, 19% of students were proficient in ELA and 6% in math, versus 14% and 3% in the district; the school was still 31 points below California in ELA and 32 points below in math. Five nearby schools with same-year results averaged 43% in ELA and 32% in math. The clearest positive comparison is chronic absenteeism: 11% at the school, versus 43% in the district and 18% statewide. That was also well below the 73% reported by Sonoma County Alternative Education Programs, though above Orchard View’s 7%. Graduation is another challenge: the rate was 59%, 12 points above the district but 29 points below the state.

Results have improved since 2022–23: ELA proficiency rose 19 points and math rose 6 points, while the gaps with the state narrowed by 16 and 3 points, respectively. The graduation rate also rose 22 points between 2020–21 and 2025–26. In 2024–25, the student-teacher ratio was 17.5, close to the nearby-school average of 16.4; free/reduced lunch eligible students made up 93% of enrollment, the highest share among nearby schools with that measure and year. SchoolDigger rank and stars were not provided for Sonoma County Court; Orchard View was the only nearby school with a supplied rating, at rank 156 of 968, the 84th percentile, and 4 stars. The state suppresses Sonoma County Court’s science and eighth-grade results.
