GOLD STRIKE HIGH SCHOOL

Gold Strike High is a Title I public high school that is part of the Calaveras Unified school district, located in San Andreas, CA with about 46 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 2 teachers, Gold Strike High has a student/teacher ratio of about 23:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Gold Strike High School is a small, alternative educational institution located in San Andreas, California. Serving the Calaveras County region, the school is designed to provide a supportive and flexible learning environment for students who may benefit from a non-traditional academic setting. Its mission typically focuses on credit recovery, individualized instruction, and helping students meet the necessary requirements to graduate and prepare for post-secondary opportunities.

Because of its modest size and specialized focus, Gold Strike High often fosters a close-knit community where teachers can offer more personalized attention compared to larger comprehensive high schools. By emphasizing student accountability and tailored curriculum pathways, the school plays a vital role in ensuring that at-risk students or those with unique scheduling needs have the resources and guidance required to earn their high school diplomas.
