East Bay Arts High

Summary:

East Bay Arts High is a public high school located in San Lorenzo, California, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 188 students. The school is part of the San Lorenzo Unified School District, which is ranked 1186 out of 1568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

East Bay Arts High has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from a high of 636 out of 2,133 California high schools in 2018-2019 (4-star rating) to a low of 1,847 out of 2,323 in 2023-2024 (1-star rating). This decline suggests that the school's performance has been lagging compared to other high schools in the state. Additionally, female students, Hispanic students, and low socioeconomic status students at East Bay Arts High have consistently performed better than their male and higher-income counterparts. The school has also experienced fluctuating graduation rates, ranging from 97.3% in 2021-2022 to 83.8% in 2018-2019, and high dropout rates, ranging from 2.7% to 10.8% over the past few years.

Compared to nearby schools, Arroyo High, another high school in the San Lorenzo Unified School District, has consistently outperformed East Bay Arts High in terms of statewide ranking, graduation rates, and academic performance. Additionally, KIPP King Collegiate High, a public charter school located near East Bay Arts High, has significantly higher academic performance and graduation rates. These comparisons suggest that East Bay Arts High faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, particularly those from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which may be contributing to the school's overall performance issues.

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.
