Adelante High

Summary:

Adelante High is a small public high school in Riverbank, California, serving grades 10-12 with a total enrollment of just 51 students. Unfortunately, this school faces significant challenges, including consistently low academic performance, high dropout and chronic absenteeism rates, and a student population with a high percentage of socioeconomically disadvantaged students.

Adelante High has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of California high schools over the past several years, with a statewide ranking ranging from 1056 out of 1290 in 2020-2021 to 2267 out of 2323 in 2023-2024. The school's performance on standardized tests is also significantly below the state and Riverbank Unified district averages. Additionally, Adelante High has experienced high dropout rates, ranging from 12.8% to 27.8% over the past few years, and very high chronic absenteeism rates, reaching as high as 72.9% in 2021-2022.

In comparison, the nearby Riverbank High school, which is also part of the Riverbank Unified district, has higher graduation rates (96.3%), lower dropout rates (3.0%), and better academic performance on standardized tests. Adelante High's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as male students and Hispanic students, whose rankings have been in the bottom 10-15% of California high schools in recent years. Despite being in operation for several years, Adelante High has not shown any meaningful improvement in its academic performance or other key metrics.

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.
