Arcata Educational Resource Center and Six Rivers Montessori share this address in the state’s school directory. OpenStreetMap maps the grounds as one campus. Which buildings each school uses here isn’t mapped.

A picture of the campus, not an attendance boundary or a rating.
Schools maintain a closed campus policy. For students’ safety, visitors may enter a campus only with the school’s official permission; this drawing implies no permission to enter.
Students come here by referral or placement rather than choosing among schools, so we publish its results without a rating.
In its own words
What does this school say about itself?
We haven’t read Arcata Educational Resource Center’s website yet. Until we do, the school’s own site is the best place to hear it in its own words.
Over time
Have results changed?
There’s no spring 2025 result to compare with spring 2026: fewer than 11 students tested here that year, so CDE withheld it.
