California College-Going Rate

65% of the 2022-23 graduating class enrolled in college within a year.

The share of 2022-23 graduates who enrolled at a college anywhere in the U.S. within 12 months, per the National Student Clearinghouse match the California Department of Education publishes.

Within 12 months
65%
of 20 graduates

Give the same class four more months and 70% had enrolled — CDE publishes a 16-month window alongside the 12-month one, 14 students.

Up 19.2 points from the 2021-22 class (45.8%).

Where the 2022-23 class enrolled

In California — 12 students (60.0%)

University of California 0.0% 0
California State University 10.0% 2
California Community College 50.0% 10
California private college 0.0% 0

Out of state — 1 students (5.0%)

Out-of-state 4-year 5.0% 1
Out-of-state 2-year 0.0% 0

CDE puts each graduate in one bucket only — whichever kind of college they were enrolled in longest — so these add up to the rate above. That is a different count from the UC Reach Score on this page, which counts a student at every UC campus that admitted them.

CDE builds the rate by matching California high school completers to National Student Clearinghouse enrollment records; we publish CDE’s aggregates and hold no student-level data.

College readiness

Getting ready for college

These come from the state and federal files, not from UC — so they are here whether or not Glacier High School Charter has a UC admissions record.

A-G Completion
Only 1 in 5 graduates finish the courses UC and CSU require — below the state norm. Worth asking how course access and planning work here.
19%
6 of 31 graduates · 2019-20 cohort
In context: CA median 51.0% · -31.6 pp vs. median · Madera Co. 39.7%.

SBAC academic outcomes — grade 11, 2025

Share of grade-11 students meeting or exceeding the California standard on Smarter Balanced ELA and Math. This is the academic-readiness signal that pairs with UC Reach (post-grad outcomes), stability (retention), and absenteeism (engagement). Note: statewide median Math is only ~20% — a school at 20% isn't an outlier; one at 45%+ genuinely is.

About 6 in 10 students read and write at grade level — above the state norm.
About 4 in 10 students do math at grade level — the top quarter of California high schools.

Chronic absenteeism — 2024-25

Share of students missing 10% or more of expected attendance — the leading indicator that often precedes the demand decline shown above. Families disengaging tend to raise absenteeism first, then formally leave. Basis: grades 9–12.

Kids show up: 3% are chronically absent versus about 23% statewide — engagement most schools would envy.
Chronic absent
3.3%

Low and stable absenteeism — students are engaged and showing up. The leading indicator is healthy.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25

Two complementary signals: retention (do students stay once enrolled?) and demand (are families choosing the school?). Read against the Madera County baseline — the demographic tide is moving every CA HS, so a school's gap vs. county is the actionable signal.

77% of students who start the year here finish it here.
Critical
Compounding decline on both vectors.

Enrollment -23.3% vs. county +6.9% AND stability (77.4%) below the county median. Recruitment and retention both under pressure — likely a foundational rather than tactical problem.

Benchmarks limited to non-virtual public & charter HS with ≥100 cumulative enrollees so by-design-high-churn continuation schools don't dominate the bottom of the distribution.

District financial profile — Yosemite Unified (FY2020)

From 4 years of NCES F-33 filings (the federally-mandated district finance survey). Public schools don't have their own books — the district does. These figures show the financial scale, revenue dependence, instruction-vs-overhead mix, and long-term debt that shape what a school can sustain.

Source: NCES F-33 Annual Survey of School System Finances (Urban Institute Education Data API). Latest year currently published: FY2020. F-33 is a district-level federal filing — it reflects the Yosemite Unified as a whole, not this individual school's books. Revenue mix shows where the district's dollars come from (state aid dominates in CA via LCFF). Instruction share is current expenditure on instruction ÷ total current expenditure (national benchmark ~60%). Long-term debt is end-of-year outstanding (mostly facilities bonds).
