A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.

With about 9 teachers, Rio Cazadero High (Continuation) has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. 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.

Rio Cazadero High School, located in Sacramento, California, is a specialized continuation high school within the Elk Grove Unified School District.

The philosophy of Rio Cazadero centers on personal growth and academic recovery through smaller class sizes and more direct interaction with faculty. By focusing on individualized instruction and social-emotional support, the school aims to address the unique barriers that students may face in their educational journeys. Through its commitment to a "second-chance" environment, Rio Cazadero provides students with a pathway to stability, fostering a culture that emphasizes accountability, college and career readiness, and the pursuit of post-secondary success.
