High schools are scored on their own scale — never ranked against other levels.
The high school years
The high schools average 43.6/100 — 10.4 points below the state average. Here is what that number does and doesn't say.
4 high schools span 22 points around an average of 43.6.
1 continuation/alternative school not plotted — it ranks within its own class, not on this statewide axis.
Ernest Righetti High is the strongest option at 52/100 — 17.0% of its students exceed the state standard.
31.6% 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
Scores here cluster within 22 points, so the address decides less than it does in most districts. Ernest Righetti High tops the list at 52/100 — still worth confirming the exact zone before you commit.
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 — 1 campus here ranks as On the Rise, its aggregate cohort-change indices above the published threshold. Ask your school two questions: what it is doing about attendance, and what the classroom looks like for a kid who arrives ahead.
