Chautauqua High (Continuation)

Summary:

Chautauqua High (Continuation) is a small public high school in Big Bear Lake, California, serving grades 8-12 with a student population of just 46. As a continuation school, Chautauqua High faces significant challenges, consistently performing well below the district and state averages on standardized tests. In the most recent year, only 6.25% of Chautauqua High students were proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy, compared to 44.68% for the Bear Valley Unified district and 55.73% for the state of California. In Mathematics, 0% of Chautauqua High students were proficient or better, compared to 20% for the district and 27.9% for the state.

Chautauqua High's struggles extend beyond academics, with fluctuating graduation rates ranging from 38.5% to 77.3% over the past five years, and dropout rates as high as 26.9%. The school also experiences extremely high chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 83.6% to 93.4% over the same period, significantly higher than the 32.4% rate at the nearby Big Bear High School. Chautauqua High's performance is particularly low for Hispanic students, White students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking in the bottom 10-15% of California high schools for these subgroups.

Compared to the nearby Big Bear High School, which is also part of the Bear Valley Unified district, Chautauqua High's performance is significantly lower across the board. This suggests that the challenges faced by Chautauqua High, as a continuation school serving a high percentage of students from low-income families, require targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes and better serve the community.

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.
