Maple High

Summary:

Maple High is a public high school located in Lompoc, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 122 students. Unfortunately, this small school has struggled significantly, consistently performing well below the Lompoc Unified School District and the state of California in academic achievement, graduation rates, and attendance.

Maple High's academic performance is particularly concerning, with only 4.41% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts/Literacy and 0% proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the district and state averages. The school's graduation rates have ranged from 55.9% to 85.5% over the past five years, significantly lower than the 90.3% rate at the nearby Lompoc High School. Maple High has also grappled with very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 74.3% to 80.0%, much higher than the 25.9% rate at Lompoc High and the 28.6% rate at Cabrillo High.

While the high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (75.41% in 2022-2023) may be a contributing factor, the nearby Cabrillo High has consistently outperformed Maple High and the Lompoc Unified School District as a whole, ranking in the top 20% of California high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that the district has the potential to improve the performance of its schools, and addressing the high chronic absenteeism rates at Maple High could be a crucial first step in improving academic outcomes and graduation rates.

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.
