GERBER JR./SR. HIGH SCHOOL

Gerber Jr./Sr. High is a Title I public high school that is part of the Sacramento County Office of Education school district, located in Sacramento, CA with about 115 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, Gerber Jr./Sr. High has a student/teacher ratio of about 28:1. 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.

Gerber Jr./Sr. High is a specialized educational facility located in South Sacramento, operating under the umbrella of the Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE). The school is designed to serve students who require a more focused, supportive, or alternative learning environment than what is typically found in a traditional comprehensive high school. By operating within the SCOE network, the school focuses on providing academic instruction, credit recovery, and behavioral support tailored to students who may be at-risk or are navigating unique educational challenges.

The school’s mission emphasizes personal growth and academic advancement, utilizing a smaller class-size structure to ensure that students receive more individualized attention from faculty and staff. Located on Gerber Road, the campus serves as a vital resource for the local community by helping students stay on track toward high school graduation or transition successfully back into traditional settings. Through its alignment with county-wide educational standards, Gerber Jr./Sr. High prioritizes fostering a stable environment where students can rebuild their academic standing and prepare for future success.
