The California School Campus Database records Empire Elementary on this campus too; it gives each school the whole campus, so this drawing doesn’t show which buildings each uses.

Drawn from OpenStreetMap, inside the campus outline from the California School Campus Database (2025). Volunteers map it, so a new building may be missing. Buildings with no mapped height are drawn one storey high.

A picture of the campus, not an attendance boundary or a rating.

Schools maintain a closed campus policy. For students’ safety, visitors may enter a campus only with the school’s official permission; this drawing implies no permission to enter.

A grade the school doesn't teach has no row. “Suppressed” marks a result CDE blanks because fewer than 11 students tested (CDE’s reporting rule); “none tested” marks a grade CDE lists with no students tested; “not on file” marks a result missing from the records we hold. None of them means zero.

What you can do

Who can act on Stanislaus Military Academy at Teel’s results?

The state has Stanislaus Military Academy at Teel in its most intensive support; Stanislaus County Office of Education’s board decides its plan.

Students at Stanislaus Military Academy at Teel are placed here by probation, district or voluntary referral.

What has the state flagged?

2025–26 is its 4th year in a row in this support. The state named it for its graduation rate. This support comes with a school improvement plan, which must use approaches with evidence behind them and look at how money and staff are divided among schools. Ask the principal to see the school improvement plan.

Federal designation under the Every Student Succeeds Act, 2025–26. Source 

The state is giving Stanislaus County Office of Education extra help in 2026. It qualified on the 2025 and 2026 California School Dashboards. The 2026 Dashboard flagged results for all students on two measures: graduation, and college and career readiness; and for long-term English learners on two measures: progress in learning English, and graduation; and for low-income students on two measures: graduation, and college and career readiness.

When is the plan set, and how can you take part?

Stanislaus County Office of Education’s board must adopt its yearly plan (LCAP) by July 1, after at least one public hearing at an earlier meeting.

How to take part

Life at school

How many students here graduate, and where do they go next?

51% of students graduated in four years in 2024–25.

State graduation, readiness, college-going, attendance and suspension records

The four-year rate counts regular high school diplomas only, not a certificate of completion. Ask how many students here finish with each, and what each one leads to.

Graduated in four years
2024–25 · 22 of 43 students who started 9th grade together. California Department of Education, adjusted cohort graduation records.
