Almaden Valley Schools: 2012 Academic Performance Report

Almaden Valley SchoolsAn expression we often hear in real estate is, “Location. Location. Location.” In Almaden Valley real estate, however, it’s also, “Schools. Schools. Schools.” Almaden Valley has incredible schools, both public and private, among the best schools in the State of California.

To save buyers time when evaluating Almaden homes for sale, I am now publishing an annual Academic Performance Report for all Almaden Valley Schools.

This new report includes the Academic Performance Index (API) and Standardized Testing & Reporting (STAR) scores and rankings for all public schools in Almaden Valley. The California Department of Education uses these tests to measures the academic performance and growth of schools on a variety of academic factors.

In my new Academic Performance Report you will find the following information for each public school in Almaden Valley, including elementary, middle, and high schools:

  • Academic Performance Index Scores
  • Statewide Rankings
  • Similar Schools Rankings
  • Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) (% of Students in Program)

  • California Standards Tests (CST) Mathematics (% Proficient or Advanced)
