Summary

Arroyo Valley High is a large public high school serving about 2,700 students in grades 9-12 within the San Bernardino City Unified district, which serves a community with significant economic need.

The school has a remarkable strength in ensuring students graduate, with a 96.4% graduation rate that outpaces both the district and state averages and is comparable to nearby Eisenhower High. However, this success in getting diplomas does not fully translate to academic mastery on state tests, where proficiency in math, English, and science is below state averages. A major challenge is chronic absenteeism, with over a third of students missing significant school, a rate higher than other comprehensive high schools in the area like Rialto High and San Bernardino High.

Compared to schools in neighboring districts, Arroyo Valley's academic performance is similar to its district peer, San Bernardino High, but is notably outperformed by the selective Middle College High within its own district. The school shows it can effectively support some groups of students to graduation, but there are significant disparities in academic support, particularly for students in special education. Addressing attendance and learning gaps for specific student needs appear to be key opportunities for improvement.
