Summary:
The city of Weaverville, California is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 2 high schools (1 regular and 1 continuation), and 1 alternative school. These schools serve students across various grade levels and face a range of challenges and successes.
Weaverville Elementary stands out as the strongest performing school, with academic results that exceed district and state averages in many areas. However, the school faces a high chronic absenteeism rate of 30.5%, which is an area for improvement. In contrast, Trinity High struggles with low proficiency rates in math and science, despite having a strong 93.3% four-year graduation rate. The continuation high school, Alps View High, faces significant challenges, with a 66.7% four-year graduation rate and a 13.3% dropout rate, as well as a 100% chronic absenteeism rate.
The data also reveals that the alternative schools, R.I.S.E. Academy and Alps View High, serve a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 69.37% to 86.96%. This highlights the importance of considering a range of metrics beyond just test scores when evaluating school performance, as factors like attendance, graduation rates, and student demographics provide a more comprehensive understanding of the challenges and successes of each school in the Trinity Alps Unified and Trinity County Office of Education districts.
