Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025
Climbed from the 4th to the 42nd percentile since 2019 — past roughly 600 middle schools.
Most rating sites would stop at “42% proficient” and call it done. Enterprise Alternative deserves a closer read. More than half of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
53 tested · 2 of 3 grades published · no cohort tracked
Enterprise Alternative scores 33 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 42nd percentile of 2,177 California middle schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).
The pandemic drop is behind this school: 42% of students meet the standard today, above the 19% who did in 2019.

Worth knowing
At 50 students, this school is much smaller than the typical California middle school (≈860).
On the state's science test (CAST), 32% met or exceeded the standard — science is tested in grades 5 and 8 and once in high school, and it never enters the Scope Score.

Worth a school visit
Ask how the school challenges kids who clear the standard early. The gap between meeting and exceeding is where pacing shows.
- 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.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Enterprise Alternative a good middle school?
Enterprise Alternative has a Scope Score of 33 out of 100, placing it in the 42nd percentile of California middle schools and ranked #1,270 statewide. 10.6% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 6.6 percentage points below the California average of 17.2%. The Scope Score weights 6 dimensions for middle schools: exceeded standard (42%), met or exceeded (proficient) (23%), grade 6-to-8 growth (20%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Enterprise Alternative's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 41.6% of students at Enterprise Alternative met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 10.6% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 31.0% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 10.6% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 55 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Enterprise Alternative rank in California?
Enterprise Alternative ranks #1,270 among California middle schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 42nd percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), grade-level growth (Grade 6 to grade 8 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.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Enterprise Alternative?
21.2% of students at Enterprise Alternative are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), compared to the California average of 18.1%. The suspension rate is 6.1%. 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 Enterprise Alternative compare to other schools in Clovis?
Enterprise Alternative scores 33/100 (42nd percentile) among California middle schools. 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 50 students. Use the schools in Clovis page or the map view to compare all middle schools nearby.
