Saddleback High

Summary:

Saddleback High is a public high school located in Santa Ana, California, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 1,597 students. The school is part of the Santa Ana Unified School District, which is ranked 1,241 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Saddleback High has consistently ranked in the bottom half of California high schools, with a ranking between 1,028 and 1,534 out of over 2,000 schools in recent years, and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other California high schools. The school has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 93% to 97% in recent years, but its dropout rate has been higher than the state average, ranging from 0.6% to 1.4% in the past few years. Saddleback High has also experienced a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, from 12% in 2017-2018 to 29.7% in 2021-2022. The school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are consistently lower than the Santa Ana Unified School District and the state of California averages, with particularly low performance in Mathematics.

Saddleback High's performance is generally lower than the nearby high schools in the Santa Ana Unified School District, such as Hector G. Godinez and Segerstrom High, which have higher statewide rankings and better academic outcomes. However, Saddleback High outperforms some of the smaller, more specialized high schools in the area, such as Cesar E. Chavez High and Lorin Griset Academy, which have even lower test scores and graduation rates. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate is likely linked to its high percentage of low-income students, with over 69% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

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.
