Best Public Schools in Laytonville, CA


Summary:

The city of Laytonville, California is home to two public schools - Laytonville Elementary and Laytonville High, both part of the Laytonville Unified school district. Based on the available data, these schools face significant challenges in academic performance, attendance, and socioeconomic factors.

Neither Laytonville Elementary nor Laytonville High stand out as high-performing schools. Both have relatively low statewide rankings and ratings, with Laytonville Elementary ranked in the bottom 10% of California elementary schools and Laytonville High ranked in the bottom 30% of California high schools. The schools struggle with extremely low proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, well below state averages. For example, Laytonville Elementary's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate was just 10.53% compared to the state average of 42.8%, and Laytonville High's 11th grade Math proficiency rate was only 5.56% compared to the state average of 27.9%.

Attendance and engagement also pose significant challenges, with both schools reporting extremely high chronic absenteeism rates exceeding 50% in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, Laytonville High had a dropout rate of 12.9%, higher than the state average. These academic and attendance issues may be exacerbated by the high rates of economic disadvantage, with over 68% of students at both schools qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Addressing the multifaceted needs of the Laytonville schools will likely require comprehensive, targeted interventions to improve student outcomes.
