EL DORADO HILLS, CALIFORNIA. The <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>program <\/span>at <\/span>John Adams Academy<\/span><\/span> in <\/span>Lincoln<\/span><\/span> will <\/span>close <\/span>at <\/span>the <\/span>end <\/span>of <\/span>the <\/span>2025\u2013<\/span>26 <\/span>school <\/span>year <\/span>after <\/span>academy <\/span>officials <\/span>determined <\/span>the <\/span>program <\/span>is <\/span>no <\/span>longer <\/span>financially <\/span>sustainable.\u00a0 John Adams Academy is Northern California’s only tuition-free, TK-12 American Classical Leadership Education\u00ae charter school with campuses in El Dorado Hills, Lincoln, and Roseville.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>decision <\/span>was <\/span>finalized <\/span>March <\/span>12 <\/span>following <\/span>months <\/span>of <\/span>discussion <\/span>by <\/span>the <\/span>academy\u2019s <\/span>governing <\/span>board. <\/span>School <\/span>leaders <\/span>cited <\/span>declining <\/span>student <\/span>retention <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>upper <\/span>grades <\/span>and <\/span>a <\/span>projected <\/span>budget <\/span>deficit <\/span>approaching $<\/span>1 <\/span>million <\/span>as <\/span>the <\/span>primary <\/span>reasons <\/span>for <\/span>the <\/span>closure.<\/span><\/p>\n

According <\/span>to <\/span>academy <\/span>officials, <\/span>the <\/span>campus\u2019s <\/span>elementary <\/span>and <\/span>middle <\/span>school <\/span>programs <\/span>remain <\/span>strong. <\/span>The <\/span>TK-<\/span>8 <\/span>program <\/span>currently <\/span>maintains <\/span>a <\/span>waiting <\/span>list <\/span>of <\/span>more <\/span>than <\/span>600 <\/span>students. <\/span>However, <\/span>enrollment <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>grades <\/span>has <\/span>failed <\/span>to <\/span>keep <\/span>pace, <\/span>creating <\/span>a <\/span>widening <\/span>financial <\/span>gap.<\/span><\/p>\n

Charter <\/span>schools <\/span>like <\/span>John <\/span>Adams <\/span>Academy <\/span>receive <\/span>funding <\/span>based <\/span>largely <\/span>on <\/span>average <\/span>daily <\/span>attendance. <\/span>When <\/span>student <\/span>numbers <\/span>decline, <\/span>revenue <\/span>follows.<\/span><\/p>\n

School <\/span>leaders <\/span>reported <\/span>a <\/span>significant <\/span>drop <\/span>in <\/span>class <\/span>sizes <\/span>as <\/span>students <\/span>progressed <\/span>through <\/span>high <\/span>school. <\/span>Freshman <\/span>classes <\/span>typically <\/span>averaged <\/span>between <\/span>125 <\/span>and <\/span>130 <\/span>students, <\/span>but <\/span>those <\/span>numbers <\/span>steadily <\/span>fell <\/span>by <\/span>the <\/span>time <\/span>students <\/span>reached <\/span>their <\/span>senior <\/span>year. <\/span>In <\/span>one <\/span>example <\/span>shared <\/span>with <\/span>the <\/span>board, <\/span>a <\/span>freshman <\/span>class <\/span>of <\/span>128 <\/span>students <\/span>had <\/span>fallen <\/span>to <\/span>just <\/span>56 <\/span>by <\/span>their <\/span>junior <\/span>year.<\/span><\/p>\n

As <\/span>a <\/span>result, <\/span>the <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>program <\/span>is <\/span>projected <\/span>to <\/span>face <\/span>a $<\/span>950,000 <\/span>deficit <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>coming <\/span>school <\/span>year. <\/span>Officials <\/span>said <\/span>the <\/span>Lincoln <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>would <\/span>need <\/span>roughly <\/span>400 <\/span>students <\/span>to <\/span>operate <\/span>sustainably, <\/span>but <\/span>the <\/span>program <\/span>currently <\/span>serves <\/span>just <\/span>124.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>To <\/span>sustain <\/span>a <\/span>comprehensive <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>program, <\/span>we <\/span>need <\/span>enrollment <\/span>levels <\/span>that <\/span>simply <\/span>aren\u2019t <\/span>there <\/span>right <\/span>now,\u201d <\/span>academy <\/span>founder <\/span>Dean Forman<\/span><\/span> told <\/span>the <\/span>board <\/span>during <\/span>discussions <\/span>about <\/span>the <\/span>closure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students <\/span>to <\/span>Transfer <\/span>to <\/span>Roseville <\/span>Campus<\/span><\/h3>\n

All <\/span>124 <\/span>current <\/span>Lincoln <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>students <\/span>will <\/span>be <\/span>guaranteed <\/span>enrollment <\/span>at <\/span>the <\/span>academy\u2019s <\/span>campus <\/span>in <\/span>Roseville<\/span><\/span>, <\/span>about <\/span>10 <\/span>miles <\/span>away.<\/span><\/p>\n

School <\/span>officials <\/span>said <\/span>consolidating <\/span>the <\/span>programs <\/span>will <\/span>allow <\/span>the <\/span>academy <\/span>to <\/span>maintain <\/span>educational <\/span>continuity <\/span>while <\/span>reducing <\/span>operating <\/span>costs. <\/span>The <\/span>consolidation <\/span>is <\/span>expected <\/span>to <\/span>save <\/span>approximately $<\/span>2.6 <\/span>million <\/span>in <\/span>staffing <\/span>expenses.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, <\/span>the <\/span>announcement <\/span>sparked <\/span>strong <\/span>reactions <\/span>from <\/span>parents <\/span>and <\/span>students <\/span>who <\/span>spoke <\/span>during <\/span>public <\/span>board <\/span>meetings. <\/span>Several <\/span>expressed <\/span>concerns <\/span>about <\/span>transportation <\/span>challenges <\/span>and <\/span>the <\/span>loss <\/span>of <\/span>a <\/span>tight-<\/span>knit <\/span>campus <\/span>community.<\/span><\/p>\n

Families <\/span>said <\/span>the <\/span>Lincoln <\/span>campus <\/span>provided <\/span>a <\/span>smaller <\/span>and <\/span>more <\/span>personal <\/span>educational <\/span>environment, <\/span>which <\/span>many <\/span>students <\/span>valued.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lincoln <\/span>Campus <\/span>Will <\/span>Become <\/span>TK-<\/span>8 <\/span>Only<\/span><\/h3>\n

Following <\/span>the <\/span>closure, <\/span>the <\/span>Lincoln <\/span>site <\/span>will <\/span>transition <\/span>to <\/span>a <\/span>TK-<\/span>8-<\/span>only <\/span>campus. <\/span>The <\/span>academy\u2019s <\/span>leadership <\/span>emphasized <\/span>that <\/span>the <\/span>change <\/span>reflects <\/span>financial <\/span>realities <\/span>rather <\/span>than <\/span>a <\/span>lack <\/span>of <\/span>demand <\/span>for <\/span>the <\/span>younger <\/span>grades.<\/span><\/p>\n

Forman <\/span>indicated <\/span>that <\/span>a <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>program <\/span>could <\/span>potentially <\/span>return <\/span>to <\/span>Lincoln <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>future <\/span>if <\/span>enough <\/span>families <\/span>demonstrate <\/span>interest.<\/span><\/p>\n

According <\/span>to <\/span>the <\/span>academy, <\/span>relaunching <\/span>a <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>would <\/span>typically <\/span>require <\/span>between <\/span>350 <\/span>and <\/span>400 <\/span>intent-<\/span>to-<\/span>enroll <\/span>commitments <\/span>from <\/span>families <\/span>in <\/span>the <\/span>area.<\/span><\/p>\n

For <\/span>now, <\/span>officials <\/span>say <\/span>the <\/span>focus <\/span>will <\/span>be <\/span>on <\/span>strengthening <\/span>the <\/span>TK-<\/span>8 <\/span>program <\/span>while <\/span>supporting <\/span>high <\/span>school <\/span>students <\/span>through <\/span>the <\/span>transition <\/span>to <\/span>Roseville.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
