Q: Is Trinity High a good school?

Trinity High ranks 1551 st of 2323 California high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Trinity High is a public high school located in Weaverville, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 316 students. Over the past several years, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a high of 505 out of 2,133 California high schools in 2018-2019 to its current ranking of 1,551 out of 2,323 in 2023-2024. The school is currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

While Trinity High has seen a relatively stable four-year graduation rate, ranging from 86.7% in 2018-2019 to 94.1% in 2021-2022, the nearby Alps View High (Continuation) has a much lower four-year graduation rate of 66.7% in 2022-2023. However, Trinity High has experienced a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 23.6% in 2017-2018 to 38.1% in 2021-2022, while the nearby Hayfork High outperforms Trinity High in all subject areas, with significantly higher proficiency rates.

Trinity High has a relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 59.49% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023, which is higher than the state average and the nearby Hayfork High, which has 87.21% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The data also shows that Trinity High's performance varies significantly among different student subgroups, with male students and White students having lower rankings compared to their female and non-White counterparts, respectively. These findings suggest that the school may need to address equity issues and learn from the practices of higher-performing nearby schools, such as Hayfork High, to support the success of all its students.

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.
