Tehama County Special Education: A special education center. No Scope Score publishes here.

A Scope Score ranks schools a family can choose between. At Tehama County Special Education, students are placed here by an IEP team, not by address and not by lottery — so a comparative rank would measure something a family's choice never entered. We show what California reports and hold the rank.

Worth a conversation

If a placement here is part of a child's IEP, this page is background, not the decision — the IEP team meeting is where fit actually gets decided.

  • Ask how this placement was determined, and what the annual IEP review looks at.
  • Ask what related services — speech, occupational therapy, counseling — are provided on site.
  • Ask how and when a return to a less-restrictive setting gets reconsidered.

It spends $41,462 per student, more than the California average.

These measure different things: this figure is spending attributed to this campus, while district-wide figures also include central administration, districtwide programs, and the state's pension contributions made on the district's behalf — costs that never get assigned to a single school. The district number runs higher at nearly every school, not just this one.

$4,102 per student arrives as federal Title funding — a measure of concentrated need, not school quality.
