Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025
Slipped from the 33rd to the 9th percentile since 2019.
Most rating sites would stop at “17% proficient” and call it done. Tulelake deserves a closer read. Four in five of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
Test scores are one lens, and at this school they're a rough one right now. The sections below show the fuller picture — including the parts that are working.

Tulelake High scores 37 of 100 on SchoolScope's Scope Score — the 9th percentile of 1,647 California high schools (CDE CAASPP 2025).
This school hasn't fully recovered from the pandemic: 17% meet the standard today, versus 50% in 2019 — a gap worth asking about on a visit.

California’s growth results and student groups
State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25
California's own growth model places it near the 6th percentile of high schools.
Context — never part of the Scope Score
California runs its own growth model — it follows individual children in grades 4 through 8 and compares each one against a prediction from their own prior scores. On that measure this school sits well below the middle of California high schools in reading and math together. We show it; we don't score it.
— pts vs expected is scale-score points above or below what California's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores. It is not a percentage and not a percent of anything. A typical California high school lands at −3 in reading, and the middle half of them fall between −13 and +5 — the spread is wide, so read the rank, not the sign. CDE blends two consecutive years into each published figure, so adjacent years share input data and no year-over-year trend can honestly be drawn from them. It covers grades 4-8 only, and it is not part of the Scope Score — we assessed it and left it out: it tracks school demographics roughly three times as strongly as our own growth measure does, and one published year is not enough to test how stable it is.

Low-income students here meet the ELA standard behind the same group statewide.
At Tulelake High in Tulelake, 14.8% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 21.2% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Tulelake High trails its district average for low-income students by 6.4 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (4.5% Math proficient); Hispanic students (16.9% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 4.8 percentage points for low-income students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 88 students tested.
Low-income students here trail the state average for their group by 23 points in ELA — worth asking how the school is closing that gap.

The state's growth model, by student group
California follows these children individually and predicts each one's score from their own prior year. Each row is read against the same group at a typical California high school — not against zero, and not against this school's all-students figure, because the state's expectation already differs by group.

— 5 more groups are reported here with between 11 and 29 students. We hold those back on purpose: at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own, and a quarter of such groups land past the state's top or bottom cut point by chance alone. They are listed with their student counts in the data appendix. — A group not listed at all had fewer than 11 students with a growth score, so California published nothing for it here. That is a privacy protection, not a judgment about those students. — Context only. None of this enters the Scope Score.

Worth a school visit
Ask what changed in the last two years, and what the school is asking families for. Growth shows up in these numbers a year or two after it shows up in classrooms.
- Ask what share of students complete the full college-prep course sequence, and who gets steered into it.
- Ask how English learners are supported, and what changes for them after they reclassify.
- Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
- Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
- Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
- Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Tulelake High a good high school?
Tulelake High has a Scope Score of 37 out of 100, placing it in the 9th percentile of California high schools and ranked #1,492 statewide. 6.4% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 13.4 percentage points below the California average of 19.8%. The Scope Score weights 7 dimensions for high schools: graduation rate (25%), exceeded standard (22%), college/career readiness (20%), met or exceeded (proficient) (18%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Tulelake High's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 16.7% of students at Tulelake High met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 6.4% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 10.3% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 6.4% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 78 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Tulelake High rank in California?
Tulelake High ranks #1,492 among California high schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 9th percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Tulelake High?
21.2% of students at Tulelake High are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), which is better than the California average of 23.1%. The suspension rate is 3.3%. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Tulelake High compare to other schools in Tulelake?
Tulelake High scores 37/100 (9th percentile) among California high schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 209 students. Use the schools in Tulelake page or the map view to compare all high schools nearby.
How does Tulelake High serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Tulelake High in Tulelake, 14.8% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 21.2% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Tulelake High trails its district average for low-income students by 6.4 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (4.5% Math proficient); Hispanic students (16.9% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 4.8 percentage points for low-income students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 88 students tested. SchoolScope shows disaggregated test scores by demographic subgroup so you can see how a school performs for your child's specific group — not just the school-wide average. Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.
How many students from Tulelake High go to UC?
In fall 2024, 3 Tulelake High graduates enrolled at University of California campuses, universitywide. That figure can't be split into a per-campus sum — students apply to several UC campuses at once, so campus-level counts don't add up to the universitywide total. UC is one destination among many: this says nothing about graduates who chose a CSU, a private college, a community college, or work, and it is a count, not a rate or a ranking. Data source: University of California Office of the President (UC Information Center), fall 2024 admissions cycle.

What we can't show
- — Low-income students here trail the state average for their group by 23 points in ELA — worth asking how the school is closing that gap.

Whole scale-score points above or below what CDE's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores — not a percentage, not a percentile. Statewide a typical school lands near +1 with a spread of about 13 points either side, so read a figure against its group's own typical value, not against zero. Muted rows have fewer than 30 students with a growth score — published by CDE, held back from the narrative sections above because at that size the figure swings about 17 points on its own. “Not categorised” is CDE assigning no band — English Only, Recently Reclassified, and English Learners Only receive a value and no band, for every school in the state. It is not a missing number. Most figures blend two consecutive years, so adjacent published years share input data and no trend line can honestly be drawn across them. A group absent from this table had fewer than 11 students with a growth score and was never published. Grades 4-8 only. None of this enters the Scope Score — it is more strongly correlated with school demographics than our own growth measure, and one published year is not enough to test its reliability.
