Village High

Summary:

Village High is a public high school located in Pleasanton, California, serving grades 9-12 with a relatively small student population of 79 students. The school is part of the Pleasanton Unified School District, which is ranked 101 out of 1,568 districts in the state and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a highly-ranked district, Village High faces significant challenges in academic achievement, graduation rates, and student engagement compared to both its local and statewide peers. The school consistently ranks in the bottom half of California high schools, with only 7.69% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in math and 0% proficient or better in English Language Arts. Its four-year graduation rates have fluctuated between 57.4% and 79.5%, and its dropout rates have been as high as 34%, much higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 37.5% to 56.3%.

In comparison, the nearby Foothill High and Amador Valley High, which are also part of the Pleasanton Unified District, perform significantly better than Village High across all metrics. Schools in the neighboring Livermore Valley Joint Unified District, such as Del Valle Continuation High, Livermore High, and Granada High, also outperform Village High in most areas, despite being in a different district.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
