District-Level NCES Analysis
Amador County Office of Education operates 2 public schools serving 24 students, placing it among the smallest districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Amador County.
The funding mix is 26.1% local, 60.1% state, and 13.8% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles.
a 8.3:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 7.7% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 60.8% White, 29.3% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.
Amador County Special Education accounts for 54.2% of all Amador County Office of Education student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Amador County Office of Education a distant remainder — means Amador County Office of Education-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Amador County Office of Education student-counselor ratio is 8:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Amador County Office of Education chronic absenteeism rate is 7.7% — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
