Summary:
The city of Quartz Hill, California is home to 3 schools, including 1 elementary school and 2 high schools (1 traditional public high school and 1 public charter high school). The data reveals a mix of performance across these institutions, with some standout schools and areas for improvement.
The Academies of the Antelope Valley, a public charter high school, stands out with a higher 4-year graduation rate (91.7%) and lower dropout rate (8.3%) compared to the traditional Quartz Hill High School (88.5% and 10.2% respectively). Academies of the Antelope Valley also outperforms the district and state averages in 11th grade English Language Arts/Literacy. Meanwhile, Quartz Hill Elementary shows relatively strong performance in English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics, with 4th and 6th grade students scoring above the district and state averages.
However, the data also suggests that the schools in Quartz Hill, particularly the high schools, may be facing challenges in academic achievement, as evidenced by their relatively low test scores and school ratings compared to state averages. The high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 16.1% to 29.1%, could be an area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions. Overall, the analysis highlights both the strengths and areas for improvement across the different schools in the Antelope Valley Union High and Westside Union Elementary districts.
