Del Campo High

Summary:

Del Campo High is a public high school located in Fair Oaks, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,649 students. It is part of the San Juan Unified School District, which is ranked 923 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Del Campo High has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from 355 out of 1,290 California high schools in 2020-2021 to 1,249 out of 2,323 in 2023-2024, with a 2-star rating. The school's performance varies significantly across different student groups, with Hispanic students performing relatively well, ranking in the top 30% of California high schools in 2022-2023, while the school's performance for Asian, African American, and White students is in the bottom 30-40% of the state. Del Campo High has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.8% to 95.8% over the past five years, but its dropout rate has also been high, ranging from 3.0% to 6.6% during the same period. Additionally, the school has experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 15.1% in 2018-2019 to 37.3% in 2021-2022, which is well above the state and district averages.

When compared to other nearby schools in the San Juan Unified School District, Del Campo High generally performs better than the alternative and continuation high schools, such as El Sereno Alternative Education and La Entrada Continuation High, but lags behind the higher-performing comprehensive high schools like Bella Vista High. The school's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates in Smarter Balanced Assessments and CAST, is consistently below the state and district averages across all subject areas and grade levels, which is likely due in part to the school's relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 46.57% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2022-2023.

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.

Open Quote Why I voted for a 5 star because, Del Campo high school is just like a family to me. Del Campo treated me really well when I was in DC. I know that I have ups and downs in Del Campo. I did not mean to get myself into trouble in high school. It was a bad experience for me. I wasn't myself when I was in Del Campo. Now I understand how Del Campo effected me and my real world life. I have lots of memories and moments of DC. I can't believe how many friends I made in high school. I finally understand the transition from high school to real world. The teachers are real nice to me. In Del Campo, they have better environment and atmosphere. That was in the old generation.I miss that. I miss the old generation. I was once a cougar, always a cougar. I never forget that. That is why I voted 5 of 5 stars. The old generation of DC is the always the best. Del Campo rules. Close Quote

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.
