Summary:
The Willits Charter District contains a single high school, Willits Charter, serving grades 9-12. While the school has a relatively small student population of 113, it faces some significant challenges in terms of academic performance and student demographics.
Willits Charter's statewide ranking has declined over the past two school years, dropping from 1163 out of 2348 California high schools in 2022-2023 to 1669 out of 2323 in 2023-2024. Its SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 3 stars to 1 star during this period. The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like mathematics and science are substantially lower than the state averages, with only 6.9% to 20% of students demonstrating proficiency in mathematics compared to the state's 31.57% to 35.54%.
Additionally, Willits Charter has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at 54.87% and a chronic absenteeism rate of 41.6% in 2022-2023. These socioeconomic and attendance-related factors may be contributing to the school's academic challenges and indicate a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
