Fort Bragg Unified

The Fort Bragg Unified school district in California serves 7 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district appears to be underperforming compared to state averages, with low test scores and high chronic absenteeism rates across the schools.

Fort Bragg High School stands out as the largest high school with the highest graduation rate and lowest dropout rate, but its test scores are below the state average. In contrast, Noyo High (Continuation) has very low academic performance, a high dropout rate, and a low graduation rate. The small Shelter Cove middle school also has an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate.

Across the district, the elementary and middle schools also have room for improvement, with test scores and chronic absenteeism rates that lag behind state averages. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests the district serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the academic challenges. Addressing the underlying socioeconomic factors and ensuring equitable resource distribution could be key strategies to drive improvement in the Fort Bragg Unified school district.
