PROSPECT COMMUNITY DAY SCHOOL

Prospect Community Day School is a Title I public high school that is part of the Folsom-Cordova Unified school district, located in Rancho Cordova, CA with about 29 students offering grade levels from 7th 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 4 teachers, Prospect Community Day School has a student/teacher ratio of about 7:1. 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.

Prospect Community Day School, located in Rancho Cordova, California, is a specialized educational facility operating under the Folsom Cordova Unified School District (FCUSD). Unlike traditional K-12 campuses, Community Day Schools are designed to provide a structured and supportive learning environment for students who have been expelled, referred by a school attendance review board, or who are struggling in a traditional comprehensive high school setting. The school focuses on delivering individualized instruction to help students earn necessary credits while addressing behavioral or academic challenges.

The mission of Prospect Community Day School is to foster a safe, small-scale academic environment that promotes student accountability and personal growth. By maintaining lower student-to-teacher ratios, the faculty is able to provide intensive support, credit recovery programs, and guidance aimed at helping students transition back into the mainstream educational system or prepare for graduation. The school emphasizes character development and academic achievement, serving as a critical resource for students who require a more focused, intervention-based approach to completing their education.
