Sonoma County Alternative Education Programs: A county community school. No Scope Score publishes here.
A Scope Score ranks schools a family can choose between. At Sonoma County Alternative Education Programs, students are placed here by a district, a probation department, or a county office — so a comparative rank would measure something a family's choice never entered. We show what California reports and hold the rank.

Sonoma County Alternative Education Programs is a county community school in Santa Rosa, California. SchoolScope publishes no Scope Score, performance band, archetype or ranking for schools where enrollment is assigned rather than chosen, so its CDE CAASPP 2025 results appear here unranked.
24 students were tested here on last year's CAASPP. 0.0% met or exceeded the standard; 0.0% exceeded it.
Chronic absenteeism ran 52.6%; the suspension rate was 11.4%. California reports both the same way it does for every school — this page just doesn't rank them here.
Families don't choose a court or community school off this page — a student arrives through the court, a probation department, or a district referral. For a specific student, the county office of education or the district's alternative-education office is the right first call.
- Ask how credits earned here transfer back to a student's home school.
- Ask what continuity of services looks like when a student moves between this program and a comprehensive campus.
- Ask what happens to a student's education plan after they leave.

- — No Scope Score, performance band, archetype, or state rank publishes for this school — enrollment here is assigned, not chosen, so a comparative rank would mean something different than it does for a neighborhood school. See the Enrollment Axiom at /methodology#peer-class.
- — No subgroup comparison could be shown for this school this year — either its group sizes fall under CDE's 15-student reporting floor, or district/state comparison data wasn't available for its groups.
