Common questions

How do I get in?

Ask Glacier High School Charter how it admits students. Charter schools set their own enrollment steps and dates. Evidence ↓

How many students reached the top test level here?

In grade 11, spring 2026, 31% scored Advanced in English (reading and writing) and 19% in math. 25% scored below the standard in English and 50% in math. Evidence ↓

How often do students miss school or get suspended?

5 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26 (5 of 105), meaning they missed 10% or more of school days. 0 of 109 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26. Evidence ↓

Academic achievement

How did students here do on state tests?

75% of the 16 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English; 50% did in math.

State tests (CAASPP), grade 11, spring 2026

In grade 11, spring 2026, 75% of the 16 students tested scored Proficient or Advanced in English, against 57% across California. In math, 50% did, against 32% across California. Fewer than 30 students tested, so one year can swing a lot; ask how results looked in other years.

From spring 2026, the state calls its top two levels “Proficient or Advanced” (formerly “Met or Exceeded”).

Where these figures come fromEach measure’s source, student group and definition
Graduated in four years
2024–25 · 17 of 18 students who started 9th grade together. California Department of Education, adjusted cohort graduation records. Comparison is SchoolScope’s combination of graduates and cohort counts across the reference schools, not CDE’s published state rate.
Ready for college or career (state measure)
2024–25 · 12 of 18 students in the state’s measure. California Department of Education, College/Career Indicator (CCI), overall “Prepared” rate, among the students in the indicator’s group. Prepared is CDE’s overall classification, not AP participation or a college admission rate.
Finished the UC/CSU course list
2024–25 · 10 of 17 graduates finished the UC/CSU course list. California Department of Education, A–G completion records (graduates who met the UC/CSU course requirements). Course completion is separate from college enrollment.
Where students who finished high school went
CDE college-going records, class of 2023. College enrollment is counted for 12 months after finishing high school and matched to college records, so this runs about two years behind. A dash is unavailable, not zero.

How often do students miss school or get suspended?

5 in 100 students were chronically absent in 2025–26. That means they missed 10% or more of school days. 0 of 109 students were suspended at least once in 2025–26.

In 2025 the pathway accepts two qualifying AP exams, two qualifying AP courses, or a combination of one of each in different subjects.

SchoolScope withholds the high-school score and rank because the CDE CCI cohort has fewer than 30 students. A CDE-reported rate, including a true 0%, remains source evidence; it is not a zero score.

How the California mean was selected

SchoolScope starts with its selected California finance records, not every NCES California district. For FY 2020–21, it calculates an unweighted mean of NCES F-33 current expense per pupil. District records contribute once, regardless of enrollment. The calculation keeps records with positive per-pupil current expense, enrollment over 100, CCD agency type 1, and a recorded district name; it excludes names ending in County Office of Education, Department of Education, or Superintendent of Schools. This is a SchoolScope calculation, not a state-published spending average.

Dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest dollar, so they can differ from the total by a dollar. SchoolScope groups district-level CDE SACS UserGL actuals from Fund 01, using operating objects 1000–5999 and excluding retiree benefits, food and community services, facilities acquisition, other outgo, and nonagency goals.
