How does SweetSpot score schools?

SweetSpot scores every California public school on a 0–10 scale across academics, school size, teacher pay, suspension rates, attendance, graduation, and demographics — based on actual data, not peer-relative ranking.

Is this data accurate?

Yes — SweetSpot pulls directly from the California Department of Education's annual SARC (School Accountability Report Card) release. Last refreshed when the CDE publishes new data.
