Mountain View High is a public high school located in San Jacinto, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 231 students. The school is part of the San Jacinto Unified School District, which is ranked 1253 out of 1568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mountain View High has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of California high schools over the past decade, with its performance across various student subgroups, including females, males, Hispanics, and low socioeconomic status students, also ranking in the bottom 20%. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated, ranging from a high of 96.4% in 2018-2019 to a low of 80.0% in 2020-2021, with the most recent rate of 90.7% in 2022-2023 still below the state average. Dropout rates have also been inconsistent, ranging from 0.0% in 2018-2019 to 10.7% in 2020-2021, with the most recent rate of 4.5% in 2022-2023 higher than the state average. Additionally, Mountain View High has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 54.1% in 2017-2018 to 80.1% in 2022-2023, a concerning trend that likely contributes to the school's academic performance.

When compared to other high schools in the San Jacinto Unified School District and the nearby Hemet Unified School District, Mountain View High consistently underperforms. For example, San Jacinto High and Mountain Heights Academy, both within the same district, have higher statewide rankings, graduation rates, and academic performance. One of the most striking comparisons is with Western Center Academy, a high-performing public charter school in the Hemet Unified School District, which consistently ranks in the top 5% of California high schools and has significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to Mountain View High.

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.
