A few schools stand out in the district. Eastlake High School is the top performer, ranking 228 out of 2,323 California high schools and earning a 5-star rating. It has a 97% four-year graduation rate and only a 1.2% dropout rate. Olympian High School is another high-performing school, ranking 226 out of 2,323 California high schools and also earning a 5-star rating. Otay Ranch Senior High ranks 479 out of 2,323 California high schools and has a 4-star rating.
However, the data also reveals stark disparities in performance across the district. While the top-performing schools are achieving exceptional results, several other schools, such as Palomar High, Southwest Senior High, and Mar Vista Academy, are struggling with very low test scores and graduation rates. Addressing the underlying factors contributing to these disparities, such as chronic absenteeism, will be crucial for ensuring all students in the district have access to a high-quality education.
