Source: federal Civil Rights Data Collection (CRDC 2020-21). Volume — not score — is what's reported here. A higher count means more students at this school are entering the college admissions pipeline. Note: 2020-21 was COVID-disrupted; some districts (especially those that stayed remote longer) report unusually low or zero takers.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25

Families don't leave: 97% of students who start the year finish it here — top-tier retention statewide.

289 of 298 students
