UC years and campus records

UC reports fall first-year applicants, admits and enrollees separately. These records do not establish the school’s effect on admission. “+” is a partial SchoolScope sum across linked codes; missing contributions may be zero. A reported zero remains zero. Never assume zero or a positive hidden value for missing or masked counts.

Common questions

Why doesn't Bishop Montgomery High have a Scope Score?

SchoolScope does not score private schools alongside California public schools. This profile has no comparable CAASPP result in SchoolScope's record. The page therefore omits a Scope Score, performance band, and rank.

Where do Bishop Montgomery High's directory facts come from?

The enrollment, grade-span, and student–teacher figures shown here, when present, come from the NCES Private School Universe Survey 2021-22. That survey-period record is not a current enrollment or inspection report.

What AP courses are offered at Bishop Montgomery High?

Bishop Montgomery High had own-school AP authorizations for 21 of the 40 subjects in the College Board's 2025–26 AP program: 2-D Art and Design, Biology, Calculus AB, Calculus BC, Chemistry, Computer Science A, English Language and Composition, English Literature and Composition, European History, French Language and Culture, Macroeconomics, Physics 1, Physics 2, Precalculus, Psychology, Research, Seminar, Spanish Language and Culture, Statistics, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History. The audit does not establish that a section ran that year or how students performed on AP exams.
