Perseverance Preparatory District operates 1 public schools serving 84 students, placing it among the smaller districts in California. The school portfolio breaks down into 1 elementary schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 84 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is geographically located in Santa Clara County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $18,842 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 49.4% local, 49.4% state, and 1.2% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration.

Perseverance Preparatory accounts for 100.0% of all Perseverance Preparatory District student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Perseverance Preparatory District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
Perseverance Preparatory District has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 54.8% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Perseverance Preparatory District chronic absenteeism rate is 23.8% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
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 Variation between sub-units within Perseverance Preparatory District is typically wider than the Perseverance Preparatory District-aggregate figure suggests.
