REALM High opened in 2011 to provide the community with an alternative to traditional schools with the use of Participatory Action Research (PAR). They want their students to change the world. This is a high school for students in grades 9th through 12th.

Along with core subjects, the school offers a variety of courses for its students, which includes weekly advisory classes, design and construction courses and basketball to name a few. Both parents and students would like more options when it comes to activities.

Parents are thrilled with the curriculum at the school. This is because it turns students into thinkers, leaders and world changers. The students appreciate the curriculum, however they do admit that it is challenging. The school prepares students for life after high school and both parents and students love that.

The Academic Performance Index showed no change from the previous year. Their score is 606. The statewide goal is 800. Parents are aware that there is room for improvement and are looking forward to the future.

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.

No testing information was available at the time this article was written.

REALM High is approaching education with a unique perspective and a dedicated staff. However, since the exam scores are not available it would be a good idea to learn more about the results to ensure it is the best school for your child.
