Common questions

Why doesn't Up Academy have a Scope Score?

Private schools don't take California's state tests (CAASPP), so there is no state testing data for Up Academy to score. SchoolScope gives private schools no Scope Score, performance band, or rank.

Where do Up Academy's directory facts come from?

The enrollment, grade-span, and student–teacher figures shown here, when present, come from the NCES Private School Universe Survey 2021-22. That survey-period record is not a current enrollment or inspection report.
