Summary:
The city of Sutter, California, is served by two public high schools, Sutter Union High and Butte View High, both part of the Sutter Union High district and educating a total of about 760 students in grades 9-12.
Sutter Union High is the district's main comprehensive high school, with strong performance including a 100% graduation rate that exceeds state averages and solid scores in English Language Arts. However, proficiency in mathematics and science is below the state average, indicating an area for focus. The school maintains a stable, positive ranking and has a chronic absenteeism rate better than both the district and state.
Butte View High is a much smaller alternative school that serves a higher-need population and faces significant challenges, particularly with chronic absenteeism, which is very high at 82.1%. Its graduation rate is above the state average but below the district's, and it has shown recent improvement in its state ranking. Both schools receive identical funding per student, but Butte View High operates with a lower student-to-teacher ratio, which may provide more individualized support for its students.
