Pico Canyon Elementary School

All of the public schools in the Stevenson Ranch CA area scored above the state’s Academic Performance Index (API) goal of 800 for 2009. API scores are calculated by converting a student’s performance on statewide assessments across multiple content areas into points. These points are then averaged across all students and all tests for their schools and district, resulting in the school’s or district’s API. API scores can range from 200 to 1000 with scores above 800 being the goal for all schools and districts. Schools with no API scores to report for 2009 are either newer public schools, or unrated private schools. The Hart District’s overall API score places it Number 1 in the state among union high school districts with 15,000 or more students.
