Sacramento Charter High School opened 2003 to offer families the opportunity to provide an education for their children that would last a lifetime. The goal is to create lifelong learners; self motivated students and critical thinking leaders that will go on to a 4 year university. The school serves students in 9th through 12th grades.

The school curriculum is based on the arts, business & communication, law & public service, math engineering, and health sciences. Students can also participate in dance groups, yearbook, key club, debate, school senate and several different art classes to name a few. Parents and students are happy with the choices of activities.

Parents are very pleased with the teaching formats offered at the school because not only do their children have a school to graduate from, they also get to go on to a 4 year university afterwards. The teachers are very motivating which even the students appreciate. Parents stated that the school is working to improve the chances of their children to receive a quality education so they enter a 4-year college, which is a wonderful blessing.

The Academic Performance Index showed a decrease of 4 points from the previous year to a score of 788. The statewide goal is 800. Parents are not upset with the score, but want the school to increase so that it can meet the state average and exceed it as well.
