Summary:

The area covered here has one school, Intrinsic 2 Charter High School, serving grades 9–12 with 734 students. Its 2025–2026 results show a sharp contrast: the graduation rate was above the state rate, but chronic absenteeism was also much higher. Most importantly, all nine reported test results were below their matching state results, averaging 23% at the school versus 47% statewide—a 24-point gap.

Because Intrinsic 2 is the only school in the area, it is both the highest- and lowest-ranked school here by default; that is not a meaningful comparison between schools. Compared with the state, its strongest result was 11th-grade ACT Mathematics, where 21% met the benchmark versus 40% statewide, a 19-point gap. Its largest gap was 10th-grade PreACT Secure Science: 18% versus 48%, a 30-point difference. Graduation was a bright spot at 96%, compared with 90% statewide, and the dropout rate was 2% versus 2% statewide. However, chronic absenteeism was 42% at the school, compared with 24% statewide.

Results over time are mixed, but the overall test gap widened: the school’s average across the nine comparisons fell from 26% in 2024–2025 to 23% in 2025–2026, while the average gap grew from 22 points to 24 points. The clearest improvement was 11th-grade ACT Mathematics, up 8 points to 21%; the steepest decline was 10th-grade PreACT Science, down 10 points to 18%. SchoolDigger’s ranking also fell from the 24th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 13th percentile in 2025–2026. The school’s student–teacher ratio was 11.5 in 2024–2025, and 43% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger ranked different numbers of schools across years, so its percentile history is not a direct measure of test-score changes.
