Original Research by School Decision on Alpha Cindy Avitia High District
Alpha Cindy Avitia High District is a small high school district in Santa Clara County serving only grades nine through twelve. The enrollment is under five hundred students, distributed fairly evenly across all four grades. The student body is predominantly Hispanic, with all other racial and ethnic groups together comprising a small share of enrollment. Demographic data on free-or-reduced-price lunch eligibility, students with disabilities, and English learners were not available.
The district operates a single school, Alpha Cindy Avitia High, though the data provided does not describe its location, facilities, setting, or community context. State testing results and graduation rate data were not available, so it is not possible to characterize academic proficiency or completion outcomes directly. This absence of state assessment data is common for some California data submissions and may reflect reporting gaps rather than the absence of those measures themselves; a parent interested in how the school's students perform on state tests should contact the school or district directly for that information.
Chronic absenteeism at the district sits well above the typical level for Santa Clara County districts. The attendance metric shows that the district ranks in the bottom quartile of the county's districts on this measure, meaning a substantially higher share of students have chronic absenteeism patterns than is typical in the region. A parent may want to look into this further with the school, particularly if school engagement and attendance patterns matter for their family's circumstances.
Per-pupil spending at the district is in the upper-middle range for the county, falling above the midpoint of county districts on current expenditure. This suggests the district is directing somewhat more resources per student than the typical county district, though the specific ways those resources are allocated—whether to classroom instruction, special services, facilities, or administration—are not detailed in the available data.
The district's course offerings, staffing ratios, discipline policies, and specific program pathways were not provided in the data, so it is not possible to describe what kinds of academic or career tracks are available or how the school supports students in different areas. A prospective family should look to the school's website and direct outreach to learn what programs, clubs, sports, and pathways are offered and what the daily experience and expectations are.
