Summary

Alessandro High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 for about 335 students in the Hemet Unified district, operating in a high-need community where over 90% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The school faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in English (13%), math (2%), and science (4%) far below state averages, and it has a graduation rate of 80% with a troubling chronic absenteeism rate of over 80%. Interestingly, despite having a higher per-student funding level ($27,224) and a lower student-teacher ratio than many nearby schools, these resources have not translated into stronger outcomes. For example, West Valley High and San Jacinto High serve similar student populations but achieve much higher proficiency and graduation rates.

When compared to other schools in the area, Alessandro's performance stands out. Its chronic absenteeism is more than double that of Hemet High and its academic proficiency is dramatically lower than high-performing schools like Western Center Academy. The data shows that while the school serves a high-need community, other schools with similar demographics in the region are able to achieve better results, indicating that school-level factors and strategies are crucial for student success.
