Antioch posts 17% meeting the standard and 3.0% exceeding it, against 36% and 15.8% statewide. The gaps and the bright spots below are the real read.
| Scope | % Exceeded | % Met+ | Grad rate | College readiness | Absence | Suspension | |

| This school | 38 | 3% | 17% | 85.5% | 58.7% | 34.5% | 7.8% |
| CA average · High School | 44 | 16% | 36% | 86.6% | 33.9% | 30.2% | 3.6% |
Antioch High scores 38 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 34th percentile of 2,160 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).

🌱 Building Momentum — This label means the data doesn't clearly sort the school one way or the other — ask what the school is proud of, and what it's working on.
Most rating sites would stop at “17% proficient” and call it done. Antioch deserves a closer read. The school sits in Antioch, where four in five students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.

Of 100 students here: 17 are proficient by 11th grade → 86 graduate → 59 pass an AP exam. The gaps between those bars are the questions to ask.
The 7 things our score weighs
Ask what the school is working on next. Strong numbers tell you where a school is, not where it's going.
- Ask what typically leads to a suspension, and what happens before it gets there.
- Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
- Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
- Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
- Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.

In fall 2025, 11 of Antioch's 330 graduates enrolled in the University of California system.
9 of 9 campuses are masked below UC's privacy floor — a protection, not a verdict.
campuses never sum to the universitywide figure — students apply to several
Peak: 19 enrolled, 2014
UC publishes this trend back to 1994 — no other destination has a comparable multi-year record
UC is one road of many — the full destination mix for the class of 2023 is below. And who applied isn't who the school taught: the ratio between the two reflects the self-selected pool of students who chose to apply, not what happened in the classroom. By the state's 2023 count, 55% of this class's predecessors enrolled in college somewhere within a year. More of the class of 2023 enrolled at community colleges (168) than at UC (18).
