HOPE PUBLIC SCHOOLS IS A FREE, COLLEGE-PREP PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOL SYSTEM IN OAK PARK. FOR OVER 20 YEARS, OUR SCHOOLS - PS7 (GRADES TK-8) AND SAC HIGH (GRADS 9-12) - HAVE SUCCESSFULLY BEEN CLOSING THE OPPORTUNITY GAP. ESTABLISHED IN 1989, ST. HOPE BEGAN AS AN AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM FOUNDED BY FORMER MAYOR KEVIN JOHNSON, WHO GREW UP IN OAK PARK AND RETURNED TO HIS NATIVE SACRAMENTO AFTER RETIRING FROM THE NBA. 6366028 26053 SACRAMENTO CHARTER HIGH: IN 2003, SACRAMENTO HIGH SCHOOL WAS FACING STATE INTERVENTION AS STUDENT PERFORMANCE DROPPED YEAR AFTER YEAR. THAT YEAR, ST. HOPE REOPENED THE SCHOOL AS A PUBLIC CHARTER, ALONG WITH PS7, TO PROVIDE A SEAMLESS TK-12TH GRADE EDUCATION FOR STUDENTS WHO HAVE BEEN TRADITIONALLY UNDERSERVED. PS7 AND SAC HIGH EMBODY A CORE COMMITMENT TO STUDENT EXCELLENCE AND COLLEGE READINESS THAT PROVIDES OUR SCHOLARS WITH THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE FOUNDATION FOR FUTURE LEARNING AND CAREER SUCCESS. BASED ON A SURVEY OF PARENT EDUCATION LEVELS, IN 2023-24, 49% OF SAC HIGH STUDENTS WILL BE THE FIRST IN THEIR FAMILIES TO ATTEND COLLEGE. SAC HIGH HOSTS A HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES (HBCU) FAIR EACH YEAR ON CAMPUS. IN 2023, SENIORS EARNED 110 COLLEGE ACCEPTANCES ON THE SPOT AT THIS FAIR. SAC HIGH'S PANTHER PIPELINE PROGRAM ENABLES STUDENTS TO TAKE COLLEGE COURSES AND EARN BOTH HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE CREDIT. SAC HIGH IS ONE OF TWO HIGH SCHOOLS IN SCUSD TO OFFER THIS DUAL ENROLLMENT PROGRAM AND THE ONLY ONE TO OFFER IT IN PERSON. FROM 2018-2023, SAC HIGH HAD A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF 11TH GRADE BLACK STUDENTS MEETING OR EXCEEDING ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS, GRADE LEVEL PROFICIENCY THAN SCUSD. IN 2023, SAC HIGH HAD HIGHER GRADUATION RATES FOR BLACK STUDENTS, SOCIOECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS, AND STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES THAN BOTH SCUSD AND THE STATE. WHEN LOOKING AT THE TOTAL NUMBER OF BLACK HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN SCUSD WHO ATTENDED A SCU OR UC, 49% OF THEM GRADUATED FROM SAC HIGH. 13739258 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 83 0 1 142 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 CA X DAVID CHAVEZ 9166497850 3033 MARTIN LUTHER KING JR BLVD SACRAMENTO CA 95817 KARI WEHRLY CHIEF OF SCHOOLS, THROUGH SEPT 2022 60.00 X 261369 0 36386 ELISHA PARSONS DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS 40.00 X 116009 0 20923 PRIYA SINGH SITE LEAD 40.00 X 105875 0 19537 LISA RUDA SUPERINTENDENT, STARTING SEPT 2022 60.00 X X 101773 0 19086 TED REITERMAN CFO, THROUGH NOV 2022 40.00 X 0 0 0 SANDRA MOORMAN CFO, STARTING DEC 2022 40.00 X 0 0 0 CASSANDRA JENNINGS CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 JANET RICE VICE CHAIR 2.00 X X 0 0 0 DR STEPHANIE WALTON SECRETARY 2.00 X X 0 0 0 GLADYS MITCHELL MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 KATHY MCKIM MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 ANGELIA DICKENS MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 DR RON TOM MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 CAROLYN VEAL-HUNTER MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 RONALD WEST MEMBER 2.00 X 0 0 0 585026 0 95932 4 0 1 1 0 16301007 66615 16367622 49028 49028 UNIFORM AND SCHOOL SUPPLIES SALES 611710 51742 51742 OTHER MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 900099 8635 8635 60377 16477027 51742 0 57663 X 407384 407384 5034985 5034985 637978 637978 686869 686869 171213 171213 180967 180967 82345 82345 4798365 3802869 995496 106135 106135 58074 58074 98627 98627 1784548 1725072 59476 28667 28667 112952 112952 133786 133786 INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS 980007 980007 OTHER EXPENSES 139711 121855 17856 15442613 13739258 1703355 0 5433183 4516132 1279830 1902760 3145114 11687 1500 30282 17197 4757465 888305 3162863 3869160 0 303678 10540775 13132611 2685400 1957946 1837223 3375549 1256687 1256687 31348 777898 5810658 7368080 X 2961575 4374533 1768542 1389998 4730117 5764531 10540775 13132611 1034414 0 X X 0 1 X 1 1 1 X 716644 206296 510348 996160 682009 314151 3044661 3044661 3869160 DUE TO STUDENT GROUPS 31348 OPERATING LEASE LIABILITIES 303678 OTHER LIABILITIES 442872 777898 X 16477027 0 16477027 0 16477027 15442613 0 15442613 0 15442613 PART X, LINE 2: THE SCHOOL IS A NONPROFIT ENTITY EXEMPT FROM THE PAYMENT OF INCOME TAXES UNDER INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 501(C)(3) AND CALIFORNIA REVENUE AND TAXATION CODE SECTION 23701D.
