Summary:
ZIP code 95815 has one high school, Capital College & Career Academy, serving grades 9–12 and enrolling 115 students, so there is no local school-to-school comparison. In 2025–2026, its all-grades proficiency rates were below California’s in ELA (32% vs. 49%), mathematics (11% vs. 38%), and science (25% vs. 36%). The most important finding is that results trail the state in every tested subject, with mathematics showing the largest gap at 27 percentage points.
Capital College & Career Academy is both the highest- and lowest-performing school in this list because it is the only one; that is not a meaningful local ranking. Compared with California, science is its strongest subject, 11 points below the state, while mathematics is weakest, 27 points below; ELA is 17 points below. The school’s chronic absenteeism is also notably higher than the state rate: 40% compared with 18%, a 22-point difference. These figures highlight academic and attendance concerns, but they do not explain why the results differ.
The available figures do not show whether performance is improving or declining: test results and ranking history are provided only for 2025–2026. SchoolDigger gives the school one star and ranks it 1,510 of 2,137 (29th percentile); it gives the Capital College & Career Academy District one star and ranks it 762 of 968 (21st percentile). For context, the school’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 14.2, reported spending was $62,701 per student, and 71% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible. These are descriptive measures, not explanations for test or attendance results.
