High schools are scored on their own scale — never ranked against other levels.
The high school years
29 points separate Greenfield High (52) from Portola-Butler Continuation High (23) — at this level, which school matters more than which district.
4 high schools span 29 points around an average of 38.2.
1 continuation/alternative school not plotted — it ranks within its own class, not on this statewide axis.
Greenfield High is the strongest option at 52/100 — 10.7% of its students exceed the state standard.
36.6% 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
The 29-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 Greenfield High at 52/100 — 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.
