Most rating sites would stop at “41% proficient” and call it done. CHAMPS - Charter HS of Arts-Multimedia & Performin deserves a closer read. It sits at the 60th percentile of 1,647 California high schools — but the ranking is the least interesting thing on this page.
CHAMPS - Charter HS of Arts-Multimedia & Performin's low-income kids hit 52.8% proficiency in ELA — a number the same group reaches at 38.2% statewide. If you're trying to read past zip-code-driven test scores, that's the signal worth weighing.
As a charter, CHAMPS - Charter HS of Arts-Multimedia & Performin enrolls by application rather than address. That changes how you get in, but it doesn't change the score.

What should I do next?
Worth a school visit
Ask what the school is working on next. Strong numbers tell you where a school is, not where it's going.
- Ask how the school follows up when a student starts missing days — chronic absence often starts outside the classroom, not inside it.
- Ask whether extra support — tutoring, counseling, small groups — reaches kids across income lines, not just the students already ahead.
- 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.
