Teachers only pay attention to the top 1 or 2 students in class. Average students get left behind without much attention. Children come out of there not being able to articulate words up to standards. If you don't want your child to amount to much, this is the school!

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.
