Have results changed?

There’s no spring 2025 result to compare with spring 2026: fewer than 11 students tested here that year, so CDE withheld it.

Ask: How do you help students strengthen their skills while keeping graduation and post-school plans on track?

What you can do

Who can act on San Pasqual Academy’s results?

San Diego County Office of Education’s board decides San Pasqual Academy’s plan.

The state hasn’t placed San Pasqual Academy in a support program. Federal designation under the Every Student Succeeds Act, 2025–26. Source
