What is API?
“Academic Performance Index” - a measure of the academic performance and growth of California’s schools. It is a numeric index (or scale) that ranges from a low of 200 to a high of 1000. A school's score on the API is an indicator of a school's performance level.
The statewide API performance target for all schools is 800. A school's growth is measured by how well it is moving toward or past that goal. A school's API Base is subtracted from its API Growth to determine how much the school improved in a year
The following links will take you to the California Department of Education’s web site for the complete API report information.
