Measures test performance, attendance, and climate — not arts, community, or your kid. How we score →
Most rating sites would stop at “32% proficient” and call it done. Golden Eagle Charter deserves a closer read. The school sits in Mount Shasta, where two-thirds of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
The headline number: 8.2% chronic absenteeism — versus 17.9% statewide. Attendance is the quietest strong signal a school can post.
As a charter, Golden Eagle Charter enrolls by application, not address — the score reads the same, the enrollment path doesn't.
