Sources, definitions & limitations Read the context →

Public-school results come from California Department of Education data; private-school enrollment and staffing come from NCES. Availability varies by school and measure. An em dash means a measure is unavailable on this comparison.

Students per teacher is a staffing ratio, not class size. Total tested counts student-subject records, not individual children. Cohort growth and grade-to-grade gaps describe different measures.

Scores and percentiles are specific to each school’s level and peer group. Read how we score schools →
