High schools are scored on their own scale — never ranked against other levels.
The high school years
68 points separate Troy High (88) from La Vista High (Continuation) (20) — at this level, which school matters more than which district.
68 points separate the strongest and weakest of these 8 high schools — the average hides more than it tells.
2 continuation/alternative schools not plotted — they rank within their own class, not on this statewide axis.
Troy High (88/100) holds the Strong band — 64.8% of its students exceed the state standard, against a level average of 25.6%. 3 schools classify as Strong All-Around — no weak dimension we measure.
68 points separate the top and bottom high schools — the district average won't predict the school in front of you.
What it means for your family
The 68-point spread means the district average is nearly meaningless for an address decision — the zoned high school is the whole decision. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Troy High at 88/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.
No charters or magnets among the ranked schools here, so the main lever is an intra-district transfer — California districts run them on their own windows and criteria. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, ask the district office for this year's dates.
A band is a position, not a prophecy — a school's number can move without your kid's experience moving with it. Ask your school two questions: what it is doing about attendance, and what the classroom looks like for a kid who arrives ahead.
