Trillium Charter School opened in 2007 to provide families with an alternative to traditional schools. The school serves students in kindergarten through 5th grades. The school offers a student-centered environment with high academic and behavioral standards.

Along with core subjects, the school offers nutrition, music, art education, cultural studies, nature studies, computer skills, and gardening.

Parents really like the school, parent involvement and teachers. The community awareness is strong in the school, which adds to the more family atmosphere where students feel safe and want to learn. Teachers are nurturing and caring as stated by parents. Some parents would like to see a few more activities added to the school but are very happy with the number of hands on field trips. Students like going to school and their teachers.

The Academic Performance Index increased 36 points to 786. The statewide goal is 800. Parents are pleased that the score jumped 36 points however; they would like to see more improvement as they only ranked 2 out of 10 for the API statewide rank.

The California Standards Tests is used to learn if students are mastering core subjects. The various tests are given to 2nd through 11th grades in English, grades 2nd through 7th are given tests in math, and science tests are administered to students in grades 5th, 8th, and 10th, while history tests are given to students in 8th and 11th grades.

The percentage of students passing the exams was not available at the time of this writing.

According to the parents of students attending the school, the school is providing a quality education. To ensure the school is a good fit for your child it would be best to ask questions regarding the results of the exam and tour the school.
