Summary

New Horizon High is a very small public high school serving 68 students in grades 9-12 within the Banning Unified district, which faces significant challenges, ranking in the bottom 13% of all California districts.

The school faces profound struggles, most notably with a chronic absenteeism rate of 71.6%—more than double that of Banning High in the same district—and a dropout rate of 34.7%, which is nearly four times higher. Academic proficiency is extremely low, with only about 5% of students proficient in math and science, far below the state average and neighboring schools like Beaumont Senior High. Performance is volatile year-to-year, and the school shares a challenging profile with other small alternative schools in the area, such as Green Valley High and Glen View High, though its outcomes are often worse.

Despite these challenges, the school operates with a very low student-teacher ratio of 10.7:1 and spends approximately $28,858 per student, which is twice the amount of Banning High. This creates a paradox where significant resources and potential for individual attention have not yet translated into improved outcomes. For context, nearby middle college models like Beaumont Middle College High show that small-school models in the region can achieve high graduation and proficiency rates, suggesting potential pathways for improvement.
