This school is unusual. A comprehensive high school was broken up into three separate academies that share the campus, athletic program, and library. There is a Gates Foundation tie-in that explains some of the experimental character. The website makes it hard to find current demographics and SES info. I tracked links to an outside scorecard. The 2010 figures are given separately for the three constituent schools. The demographics differ slightly from one to the next but the largest group in all three is hispanic, followed by Asians. Blacks and whites clock in at 10-15 percent each. Test scores are not great but are not terrible either, especially for an urban public school. There is a high rate of free and reduced price lunches. Looks like an interesting school. My guess is that it has a challenging gap between the white and Asian students, who comprise 40 percent plus of the students, and everyone else. But that is just a guess. I will defer to anyone who knows the area.
What’s a comprehensive high school?
Is that a purty name for a continuation high school?
