Information from the California Department of Education on local schools*This article is several years old and the schools are no longer scored in this manner*The Academic Performance Index (API), the cornerstone of the state?s Public Schools Accountability Act of 1999, is an achievement gauge for California public schools based on standardized test results. The index assigns a score for each campus, ranging from a low of 200 to a high of 1,000, with 800 as the long-term performance target. Though it?s changed over the years, API scores in 2009-2010 were primarily calculated using results of the state?s Standardized Testing and Reporting Program (STAR) and from the California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE).
