2011 API scores are out

[sdrealtor]

So I’m always interested at what is driving scores and its looks like SEH is driving the SMUSD bus these days. The SEH Elementary posted at 947 api which is spectacular.

What is most interesing to me is what is going on at the HS level and here is my theory. At the HS level, SM High is now being fed by all the new homes in SEH, Rancho Carillo, Rancho Dorado etc which has drawn in many professional families. When you look at LCC the hispanics score 685 as they are typically from the long time bario areas in Leucadia, Cardiff and Encinitas. The typical upwardly mobile hispanic family cant afford to purchase new homes in this area. In SM newer home prices have become affordable for upwardly mobile hispanic families and theirs scores 785. The white population at SM High comes predominantly from the new developments as well and their scores are 914. Whereas at LCC you get alot of the skater/surfer dude population near the beaches who think school isnt cool so they pull the scores down to 844.

I guess the irony of it is that SM will likely become increasingly homogenous (socio-economically) while the more coastal schools are the ones that will be more diverse over time.

Of course this could all be a completely inaccurate theory. Who knows for sure?

I think you missed Canyon Crest Academy (in San Dieguito district), it got 910. This one is of big personal interest to me, as we have to decide on a high school for my kid this year, Canyon Crest vs. Torrey Pines.

I tossed in San Marcos High since it gets such a bad rap and Westview in CV..

Talk what you want about cache but a lot of people living in san diego nowadays didnt grow up here so despite districts like SMUSD not having the “cache” in the past, the future is now and these districts are getting stronger (courtesy of an influx of new development in the past 10 years which has brought about higher social classes/ intellect of residents). Demographically, places like SMUSD have been changing dramatically for the better.

— Edit — just noticed someone pulled in SM high as i was typing so sorry for the repost.

Thank you cvmom. Is Canyon Crest Academy a charter or alternative school? I think I missed it because I may have thought it was. What is the student population there?
