My son attends this school. I could not ask for anything better for an inner city school. The school is college oriented, the parents must be involved, there are spanish and english classes one Saturday a month in order for parents to be involved with the school, their API score was 847, and the campus is small. My son said his biology class has about 15 students. They have testing prep classes, and tutoring during week and on Saturday. My son has homework everyday and on some weekends. The goal of the school is to enter a college or university, and they are doing well. I hope they start an elementary school.

As a student on College-Ready Academy High School #4, I experience alot of extra curricular activities that are avaliable for students my age. This school provides high expectations for students. The teachers care about thier students and teach them the qualities to promote high grades. I truely recommend this school to any parent whom wants thier children to become more educated and a high performent student.

My daughter currently attends CRAHS #4, and as a concerned parent about my child's education, I can truly say that there's no better school in lAUSD than this. The teachers are high-quality, effective and really care about the students. They also educate students on higher education and prepare them for what's needed in the years ahead. I am very pleased that my daughter is attending CRAHS #4. I recommend it without hesitation to all other parents.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California Standards Tests (CSTs) to test students in English language arts in grades 2 through 11; math in grades 2 through 7; science in grades 5, 8 and 10; and history-social science in grades 8 and 11. Middle and high school students also took subject-specific CSTs in math and science, depending on the course in which they were enrolled. The CSTs are standards-based tests, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of California. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the tests.

The different student groups are identified by the California Department of Education; if there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group in a school, the state doesn't report data for that group.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 California used the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to test high school students' skills in English language arts and mathematics. The results for grade 10 students taking the test for the first time are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The CAHSEE is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of California. Students must pass all parts of the CAHSEE in order to graduate from high school. If they do not pass it the first time, students have multiple opportunities to retake the test. The goal is for all students to pass both sections of the test.
