Carlsbad Village Academy is a public high school serving grades 10–12 in Carlsbad. It is one of 16 current school records connected to Carlsbad Unified. NCES reports 38 students for 2024–25.
Among 2,196 high schools in California with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 414.5 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 16th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
