High schools are scored on their own scale — never ranked against other levels.
The high school years
The high schools average 48.3/100 — 5.7 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.
39 points separate the strongest and weakest of these 4 high schools — the average hides more than it tells.
1 continuation/alternative school not plotted — it ranks within its own class, not on this statewide axis.
Lemoore Middle College High (68/100) holds the Strong band — 36.0% of its students exceed the state standard, against a level average of 16.9%. 1 school classifies as Strong All-Around — no weak dimension we measure.
27.9% of students are chronically absent (state: 23.1%) — chronic means missing 10% or more of the school year. Whatever the scores say, ask each school what it is doing about attendance.
What it means for your family
The 39-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 Lemoore High at 55/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.
2 of the 4 ranked schools are charters — enrollment paths that don't depend on your address. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, those lotteries and applications are the levers worth the paperwork.
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.

What this page can't see: whether a campus feels safe and glad at 8 a.m. If a path above looks workable, the next step is a visit.
