Summary:
The Marysville Joint Unified School District serves 22 schools in the Marysville area, including 14 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 4 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district faces significant academic challenges, with most schools performing below the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency.
However, a few schools stand out as exceptional performers. Marysville Charter Academy for the Arts, a public charter high school, consistently ranks among the top schools in the district and state, with high graduation rates, low dropout rates, and strong test scores. Similarly, Browns Valley Elementary is a small school that performs exceptionally well, ranking in the top 20% of California elementary schools with high proficiency rates and low chronic absenteeism.
In contrast, the district's largest high schools, Lindhurst High and Marysville High, struggle academically, with proficiency rates well below the state average. Chronic absenteeism is also a significant issue across the district, with several schools reporting rates above 30%. The data suggests that addressing these disparities and creating a more equitable education system should be a top priority for the Marysville Joint Unified School District.
