Best Public Schools in Mc Farland, CA


Summary:

The city of McFarland, California is home to 7 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals significant disparities in performance and outcomes between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools in the McFarland Unified school district.

Horizon Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, ranking in the top 50% of California elementary schools and having the highest test scores in the district across most grade levels and subjects. It also has the lowest chronic absenteeism rate at 9.9%. In contrast, San Joaquin High (Continuation) has the lowest test scores and highest dropout rate in the district, though it serves a unique population of students who may have struggled in traditional school settings.

McFarland High School Early College also performs exceptionally well, with a 99.6% 4-year graduation rate and the lowest dropout rate at 0.4%. However, the district as a whole faces challenges, including high poverty levels, with all schools having very high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and concerning chronic absenteeism rates, particularly at the alternative and continuation high schools. Addressing these disparities and providing targeted support to the lower-performing schools will be crucial for improving educational outcomes for all students in the McFarland Unified school district.
