J. E. Young Academic Center

Summary:

J. E. Young Academic Center is an alternative public school in Fresno, California, serving 1,820 students in grades K-12. The school is part of the Fresno Unified School District, which is ranked 1082 out of 1568 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While J. E. Young Academic Center has seen a decline in its four-year graduation rates, dropping from 83.0% in 2019-2020 to 69.8% in 2022-2023, this is still significantly higher than the state average of 55.73% for 11th-grade students. However, the school's dropout rates have increased from 12.1% to 23.3% over the same period, which is much higher than the state average. Additionally, J. E. Young Academic Center has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 86.8% in 2020-2021, though the rate has improved to 37.7% in 2022-2023. The school's performance on standardized tests is also significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

When comparing J. E. Young Academic Center to nearby alternative and charter schools, such as West Park Charter Academy and Endeavor Charter, it becomes clear that the school is struggling more than its counterparts, with higher graduation rates, lower dropout rates, and better test scores. The high rates of poverty, chronic absenteeism, and low academic achievement at J. E. Young Academic Center suggest that the school may be facing significant challenges in addressing the needs of its student population, which is over 92% eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.

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.
