Northern Summit Academy Shasta District

Northern Summit Academy Shasta District is an active, single-school independent charter district based in Anderson, California. Located at 2301 Balls Ferry Road within the greater Redding metropolitan area, the district serves a midsize suburban community with a unified educational program. Operating as its own local educational agency for federal programs, the district offers a comprehensive educational continuum spanning kindergarten through 12th grade. This consolidated single-campus model provides local families with a continuous learning environment, guiding students seamlessly from early primary education through high school graduation under one administrative umbrella.

With a total enrollment of 215 students across all grade levels, the district offers a close-knit learning setting characterized by low student-to-staff ratios. The student body reflects a diverse local demographic, including 144 White, 37 Hispanic, and 25 multiracial students, alongside smaller cohorts of American Indian, Asian, and Black learners. To foster academic growth and holistic student development, Northern Summit Academy maintains a robust workforce comprising nearly 30 full-time equivalent (FTE) teachers, supported by approximately 5.7 FTE instructional aides and 13.5 FTE dedicated support staff. This total staffing context of nearly 49 full-time personnel ensures that researchers, parents, and students will find a highly supported, individualized academic ecosystem centered on specialized attention and community connection.
