A “low-performing school” is a school that is in the bottom half of the Academic Performance Index (API) ranking as determined by the California Department of Education (CDE). Low-performing schools will have a ranking of 5 or less on the 10 point API ranking scale. To determine whether a school is a low-performing school, you should check with the school districts in your area or check a school’s API ranking by clicking on the API Low Performance School Database in the Quick Links section of this website. Alternatively, go to the California Department of Education website and follow the instructions there.
