iLEAD Online

Summary:

iLEAD Online is a small, alternative public charter virtual school located in Acton, CA that serves grades K-12 with 266 students and a low 7.4 student-teacher ratio.

While iLEAD Online has seen a significant improvement in its 4-year graduation rate, going from 67.4% in 2021-2022 to 89.1% in 2022-2023, its test scores generally lag behind state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2023-2024, only 53.85% of 11th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 55.73%, and only 21.05% met or exceeded math standards, compared to 27.9% statewide. However, the school has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 3.2% in 2022-2023, which is much better than nearby schools like Antelope Valley Learning Academy (41.1%) and Palmdale Aerospace Academy (25.1%). The school also serves a high-need student population, with 53.76% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

Compared to nearby charter schools, iLEAD Online generally underperforms in terms of test scores and graduation rates. For example, Vaughn Next Century Learning Center and Palmdale Aerospace Academy both have significantly higher graduation rates (97.5% and 93.8%, respectively) and better test scores across the board. However, the school's improvement in graduation rates is a positive trend that suggests it is making progress in supporting its students and helping them successfully complete their high school education.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
