CDE CAASPP 2025

Most rating sites would stop at “40% proficient” and call it done. Accelerated Charter deserves a closer read. The school sits in Los Angeles, where nearly all students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

The headline number: 23.3% of English learners met the ELA standard — versus 10.4% statewide.

As a charter, Accelerated Charter enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.

The honest read: the share exceeding falls 6.8pp across grades; the floor slips 9.7pp. The state average rises 4.5pp over the same span. The school's 5th graders aren't posting a wider lead than its 3rd graders. One question worth asking on a tour: are the strongest students being pushed, or coasting? A school visit and conversation with teachers will tell you more than this number.

Frequently asked questions

Is Accelerated Charter Elementary a good elementary school?
Accelerated Charter Elementary has a Scope Score of 40 out of 100, placing it in the 48th percentile of California elementary schools and ranked #2,960 statewide. 19.4% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is near the California average of 21.3%. The Scope Score weights six dimensions for elementary schools: exceeded standard (43%), met or exceeded (22%), grade 3-to-5 growth (15%), chronic absenteeism (10%), ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%), and suspension rate (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Accelerated Charter Elementary's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 40.0% of students at Accelerated Charter Elementary met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 19.4% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 20.6% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 19.4% pushed past it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it reveals whether a school's curriculum challenges students beyond minimum proficiency or paces toward it. 414 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Accelerated Charter Elementary rank in California?
Accelerated Charter Elementary ranks #2,960 among California elementary schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 48th percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), grade-level growth (Grade 3 to grade 5 growth), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
Is Accelerated Charter Elementary getting better or worse?
Based on 2025 CAASPP data, proficiency at Accelerated Charter Elementary decreases by 22.9 percentage points from Grade 3 to grade 5 growth. This downward pattern doesn't necessarily mean the school is failing — it can reflect cohort differences, demographic shifts, or curriculum changes. A campus visit and conversation with teachers can reveal what the numbers can't. Growth trajectory is weighted at 15% in the elementary Scope Score because it measures what the school does, not just who walks in the door.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Accelerated Charter Elementary?
12.1% of students at Accelerated Charter Elementary are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), which is better than the California average of 17.9%. The suspension rate is 0.1%, indicating a low-discipline-incident environment. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Accelerated Charter Elementary compare to other schools in Los Angeles?

To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 526 students.

Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.
