Hesperia Unified


Summary:

The Hesperia Unified School District in California serves 25 schools, including 15 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 6 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district faces significant disparities in academic performance and student outcomes across its schools, with a few standout institutions like Krystal School of Science, Math & Technology and Mesquite Trails Elementary leading the way, while many others struggle with low test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and poor graduation rates.

The data reveals a strong correlation between a school's socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and its academic performance. Schools with the highest poverty levels, such as Canyon Ridge High, tend to have the lowest test scores and graduation rates. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support programs to address the specific challenges faced by these disadvantaged communities.

Interestingly, Mojave High stands out for having the highest graduation rate (86.1%) and lowest dropout rate (13.1%) among the high schools in the district, despite its overall lower performance. This points to the importance of school climate and culture in student engagement and success, and the potential for the district to learn from the practices of its highest-performing schools.
