California College-Going Rate

42.4% 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
42.4%
of 33 graduates

Give the same class four more months and 42.4% had enrolled — CDE publishes a 16-month window alongside the 12-month one, 14 students.

Up 10.3 points from the 2021-22 class (32.1%).

Where the 2022-23 class enrolled

In California — 12 students (36.4%)

University of California 0.0% 0
California State University 0.0% 0
California Community College 33.3% 11
California private college 3.0% 1

Out of state — 2 students (6.1%)

Out-of-state 4-year 3.0% 1
Out-of-state 2-year 3.0% 1

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 Pathways Charter School has a UC admissions record.

A-G Completion ⓘ
Only 1 in 10 graduates finish the courses UC and CSU require — below the state norm. Worth asking how course access and planning work here.

5 of 35 graduates · 2024-25 cohort
In context: CA median 55.9% · -41.6 pp vs. median · Sonoma Co. 42.8%.

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 4 in 10 students read and write at grade level — below the state norm — worth asking what extra support looks like.

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.

32% of students miss 10%+ of school days — above the state's ~23%. Ask what the school is doing about engagement.

Absenteeism is up 26.8 pp since 2016-17. A rising absenteeism trend often precedes formal departure — worth investigating which subgroups are driving it.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25

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

64% of students who start the year here finish it here.

Compounding decline on both vectors.

Enrollment -32.2% vs. county -0.1% AND stability (64.4%) below the county median. Recruitment and retention both under pressure — likely a foundational rather than tactical problem.
