ALISAL SCHOOL DISTRICT’S ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE INDEX RANKS 12 OUT OF 24 IN MONTEREY COUNTY. WITH A SCORE OF 756, IT WAS JUST BELOW THE STATE BENCHMARK OF 800 OUT OF A POSSIBLE 1000. HOWEVER, ALISAL SCORED WELL COMPARED TO OTHER STATE SCHOOLS WITH SIMILAR ENROLLMENT AND DEMOGRAPHICS. THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF GROWTH WAS IN THE “PROFICIENT” AND “ADVANCE” MATH CATEGORIES. THE DISTRICT’S IMPROVEMENTS COME DESPITE HAVING HIGH PUPIL-TO-TEACHER RATIOS AND LOW SPENDING PER PUPIL.
