Original Research by School Decision on Aibt Non-profit Charter High School Inc. (449790)
This is a small high school district in Maricopa County serving grades nine through twelve through a single school, RCB College Preparatory Academy. With an enrollment that is very small for a high school grade band, the student body is composed of roughly equal shares of white students and Hispanic students, with a smaller black student representation. The school’s chronic absenteeism rate places in the top quartile among Maricopa County’s districts, meaning very few students are missing substantial amounts of school. Per-pupil current spending sits in the upper range compared to other county districts.
State testing data and a four-year graduation rate were not available in the provided data. Because this is a high school only, the absence of test data is not explained by an untested grade band; a parent may want to ask the school directly about its academic performance metrics and how it measures student progress. The data also does not include information on student eligibility for free or reduced-price meals, special education services, or English learner status, so the economic and support needs of the student population are not clear from this record.
The school offers no documented programs in the provided data, such as Advanced Placement courses, career and technical education pathways, or dual-enrollment options. The district’s website and recent changes were searched but yielded little of lasting impact for this small charter school, so no specific initiatives or developments can be described.
Given the very small size, this is a setting where students and staff are likely to know each other well. The high school uses a college preparatory name, but without available academic or outcome data, a family considering this school would need to gather more information directly from the school about its curriculum, graduation requirements, college-going rates, and any specialized offerings. The peer group is small and racially diverse with a white and Hispanic majority. The per-pupil spending being in the upper range locally suggests that the school allocates relatively substantial resources per student, though how those funds are used is not part of the record.
A parent or resident evaluating this option should contact the school to understand its academic track record, teaching approach, and what support is available for students with varying needs, as the available data provides a structural profile but leaves many practical questions about the educational experience unanswered.
