The state released data for the 2022 California School Dashboard in Dec. 2022. Due to the disruptions caused by the pandemic, this year’s dashboard only display the most current year of data (or Status). View the 2022 Dashboard data on the CDE website here.

Scroll down for data for schools and districts for the year 2019, the last year before the pandemic. View results for 2018 here and 2017 here. The dashboard shows progress, or lack of it, on multiple measures. This database shows measures of achievement on six measures, in color codes selected by the state. To find indicators from a school or district, enter a search term in the box to search by school, city, district or county.

Notes to Database

Color Codes and Ratings: The dashboard includes five color-coded performance levels, based on a combination of current performance level and change over the previous year. The color spectrum ranges from red to orange to yellow to green to blue, with red signifying the lowest performance level and blue the highest.

A color rating for English Learner Progress Indicator is not available this year since the state switched to a new test to measure English learners’ progress in English proficiency. The color rating will return in 2020.

More information about how the performance levels were calculated is available at the California Department of Education’s website here.
