Northview High

Summary:

Northview High is a public high school located in Covina, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,292 students. The school is part of the Covina-Valley Unified School District, which is ranked 590 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Northview High's performance is mixed, with strengths in graduation and dropout rates but weaknesses in academic achievement, particularly in Mathematics and for certain student subgroups. The school has consistently ranked in the middle range of California high schools, maintaining a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. While the school performs relatively well for Hispanic students, it struggles with White students and students with disabilities. Notably, Northview High's performance for English Language Learners is in the top quarter of California high schools. However, the school's high chronic absenteeism rate, which has increased from 9.7% to 18.4% in recent years, is a concern and may be contributing to its lower academic performance.

Comparing Northview High to nearby schools, such as South Hills High and Covina High, which are also part of the Covina-Valley Unified School District, reveals that Northview High generally underperforms these other district schools in academic achievement, despite having similar demographic characteristics. The performance of the nearby Fairvalley High, a continuation school, highlights the challenges faced by students in alternative educational settings, with significantly lower academic proficiency rates compared to Northview High and other nearby schools.

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.
