Summary:
The city of Linden, California has 3 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 elementary school, 1 regular high school, and 1 continuation high school. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools in the Linden Unified School District.
Linden High School stands out as the top performer, with a 100% four-year graduation rate, 0% dropout rate, and test scores that exceed the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics. In contrast, Pride Continuation High School struggles academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state. Linden Elementary School also performs well, with test scores generally on par with or above the district and state averages.
Socioeconomic factors appear to play a role, as all three schools have relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rates, particularly Pride Continuation High School at 89.66%. This suggests the Linden community faces significant economic challenges, which may contribute to the academic performance differences observed between the schools. Overall, the data highlights the need to address equity and access to resources for students from low-income families in the Linden Unified School District.
