Summary:
The city of San Jacinto, California is home to 15 schools, including 8 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 San Jacinto Valley Academy, a public charter school with exceptional graduation rates and test scores, as well as Edward Hyatt World Language Academy, an elementary/middle school with strong academic performance.
While the district's high schools generally have high graduation rates, ranging from 90.7% to 92.2%, and low dropout rates, chronic absenteeism is a significant issue, with several schools reporting rates over 30%, including the 80.1% rate at Mountain View High. Test scores also vary widely, with San Jacinto Valley Academy and some higher-performing elementary schools significantly outpacing the district and state averages, while several other schools, particularly lower-performing elementary and middle schools, have very low proficiency rates.
The majority of schools in the San Jacinto Unified and San Jacinto Valley Academy District serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with free or reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 58.5% to 97.41%. This economic disadvantage likely contributes to the performance gaps observed across the district, underscoring the need for targeted interventions and support to improve outcomes for all students.
