Summary:
The King-Chavez Community High District in San Diego, California consists of a single public charter high school, King-Chavez Community High, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 258 students.
King-Chavez Community High has faced significant academic challenges, with consistently low test scores, particularly in mathematics and science, that are below the state average. The school's four-year graduation rate of 69.8% is also lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 11.1% is higher. Additionally, the school has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 33.5%, indicating struggles with student engagement and attendance.
These academic and attendance struggles may be linked to the high percentage (95.35%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a population facing significant economic disadvantages. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.7 to 1, which could be considered a positive factor, the combination of low academic performance, high economic disadvantage, and attendance/graduation challenges indicates a need for targeted interventions and support systems to help improve student outcomes at King-Chavez Community High.
