High Schools in Palo Verde Unified

The Palo Verde Unified School District in California is home to two high schools: Palo Verde High and Twin Palms Continuation. While Palo Verde High boasts strong academic performance, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism, Twin Palms Continuation faces more significant challenges, with lower proficiency rates and higher dropout numbers.

Palo Verde High stands out as the larger and higher-performing school, with a 96.8% four-year graduation rate and a 3.2% dropout rate, outpacing the district and state averages. In contrast, Twin Palms Continuation serves a smaller, more at-risk student population, with a lower 80.0% graduation rate and a higher 20.0% dropout rate.

The data also reveals a significant gap in academic proficiency between the two schools, with Palo Verde High consistently outperforming the district and state averages, while Twin Palms Continuation struggles to meet these benchmarks. This disparity highlights the need for targeted interventions and resource allocation to support the more vulnerable student population and improve educational outcomes across the Palo Verde Unified School District.
