Summary:
The city of Ukiah, California is home to 4 high schools serving grades 9-12, each with its own unique strengths and challenges. While Ukiah High and Redwood Collegiate Academy stand out as the top-performing schools in the area, South Valley High (Continuation) and Mendocino County Community face greater challenges in supporting student success.
Redwood Collegiate Academy emerges as the highest-performing school, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, the highest graduation rate at 94.4%, and significantly higher test scores than the other schools and the state averages. In contrast, Mendocino County Community struggles with a very low enrollment, poor academic outcomes, and high dropout rates, ranking 2,333rd out of 2,335 California high schools.
The data suggests that factors such as socioeconomic status, resource allocation, and student support services may play a significant role in the performance disparities between the schools. Ukiah Unified, Redwood Academy of Ukiah District, and Mendocino County Office of Education will need to address these challenges to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Ukiah area.
