Summary:
The city of Glendora, California is home to 14 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 4 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools in the area, with some standout institutions like Goddard Middle School, Sutherland Elementary, and Glendora High School consistently demonstrating strong academic performance.
Goddard Middle School stands out with a 5-star rating and impressive proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, while Sutherland Elementary and Glendora High School also earn high rankings and 4-star ratings. In contrast, the alternative and continuation high schools, such as Oak Knoll Alternative and Whitcomb Continuation High, have significantly lower proficiency rates and graduation rates, as well as higher dropout and chronic absenteeism rates.
The data also reveals a correlation between socioeconomic factors, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and academic performance, with the schools serving a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students generally performing lower than their counterparts. This highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to address equity and support student success across the Glendora Unified and Charter Oak Unified school districts.
