- 9 in 10 graduates leave eligible for UC and CSU. 93% finish the A-G courses California's universities require before a student can even apply — most California schools manage about 6 in 10.
- About 9 in 10 students read and write at grade level. On the state's own 11th-grade test, 88% met or exceeded the college-readiness bar — the top 10% of California high schools (statewide: 54%).
- Kids actually show up. Only 7% of students are chronically absent, versus about 23% statewide — day-to-day engagement most schools would envy.
- One question for any counselor: who should still test? Plenty of strong students skip the SAT/ACT now — but merit scholarships at dozens of colleges still key off scores. Ask how the school decides who should still sit for one.

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.

Student composition — 2025-26
HS grades 9–12 racial/ethnic composition and program subgroups, from CDE Census Day Enrollment. Two-year shift shown when ≥1 pt — surfaces how the community served has changed since 2023-24.

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.
Absenteeism is down 15.6 pp since 2016-17. Engagement improving — a positive trajectory worth understanding and reinforcing.

Enrollment stability & demand — 2024-25
Two complementary signals: retention (do students stay once enrolled?) and demand (are families choosing the school?). Read against the San Diego County baseline — the demographic tide is moving every CA HS, so a school's gap vs. county is the actionable signal.
School Entrepreneurship & Tech is shrinking (-5.3%) but San Diego County is shrinking faster (-12.7%), so School Entrepreneurship & Tech is winning roughly 7.4 pp of relative market share. Combined with 92.2% stability (county median 88.5%), this reflects a school that families actively chose during a market contraction. Replicable model — worth documenting what's working.
20 of 256 students who enrolled at School Entrepreneurship & Tech this year didn't maintain continuous enrollment (7.8% non-stability). Mid-year transfers, dropouts, and other exits are all counted.

Nearest peer high schools

UC Outcomes Trend — 2018–2025
Class size from CDE grade 12 enrollment. Campus-level data: applicant and admit totals count a student once at EACH campus. A senior admitted to UCLA and UC San Diego adds 2 to the admit total, so the total can exceed the senior class — that is the metric working as defined, not an error. The admit RATE is unaffected: both its numerator and denominator are campus-level.
