Summary:
The Le Grand Union High School District in California operates two high schools: Le Grand High and Granada High. While Le Grand High serves a larger student population of 464, Granada High stands out with its 100% four-year graduation rate, significantly higher than Le Grand High's 96.2%. However, Granada High also has a much higher chronic absenteeism rate of 96.7%, compared to 23.6% at Le Grand High.
Academically, both schools face challenges, with test score proficiency rates generally lower than the state average, particularly in mathematics. Le Grand High has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking 1,068 out of 2,323 California high schools, while Granada High has a 1-star rating, ranking 1,810 out of 2,323. The high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, 82.33% at Le Grand High and 92.11% at Granada High, suggest the schools serve economically disadvantaged populations.
The stark contrast in performance metrics between the two schools warrants further investigation. While Granada High's small size, high graduation rate, and high chronic absenteeism rate suggest it may be serving a specialized student population, the overall academic challenges faced by the district indicate a need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for all students in the Le Grand Union High School District.
