At least 46 Marin schools reported API scores of 800 or more – the state standard for academic achievement – including every school in the Bolinas-Stinson, Dixie and Tamalpais districts. As many as 25 schools reported scores of 900 or higher, including every school in the Kentfield, Larkspur, Mill Valley, Reed, Ross and Ross Valley districts.”
