Summary:
The city of Manteca, California is home to 18 schools, including 14 elementary schools, 4 high schools, and no middle schools or alternative schools. These schools are part of the Manteca Unified School District, which is ranked 1068 out of 1560 districts in California and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Within the district, a few schools stand out. Sierra High School ranks 473 out of 2,335 California high schools and is rated 4 out of 5 stars, with a high 96.1% four-year graduation rate and a low 1.7% dropout rate. At the elementary level, Nile Garden Elementary and Veritas Elementary are high-performing, with students scoring well above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
However, the data also reveals significant disparities in performance across the district. While some schools excel, others, like Calla High, struggle with low test scores, high dropout rates, and high chronic absenteeism. There appears to be a strong correlation between socioeconomic status, as measured by free and reduced-price lunch rates, and academic outcomes, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to address these inequities within the Manteca Unified School District.
