La Honda-Pescadero Unified


Summary:

The La Honda-Pescadero Unified school district consists of 3 schools: 2 elementary schools (Pescadero Elementary and Middle and La Honda Elementary) and 1 high school (Pescadero High). While Pescadero High stands out with a 4-star rating and strong academic performance, the elementary schools, particularly Pescadero Elementary and Middle, struggle with low proficiency rates and high chronic absenteeism.

Pescadero High is the district's top performer, ranking 623 out of 2,335 California high schools and boasting an impressive 84.2% four-year graduation rate. In contrast, Pescadero Elementary and Middle lags behind, with proficiency rates significantly below the district and state averages. La Honda Elementary, while historically performing well, lacks recent data, making its current academic standing unclear.

Across the district, high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 36.8% at La Honda Elementary to 54.3% at Pescadero High, are a significant concern. Additionally, the stark differences in student demographics and free/reduced lunch rates between Pescadero Elementary and Middle and La Honda Elementary suggest potential equity challenges within the district that may require further investigation.
