Hesperia Unified

Summary:

The Hesperia Unified School District in California serves a diverse community, with 25 schools spanning 15 elementary, 3 middle, 6 high, and 1 alternative school. The district faces challenges in academic performance, with significant disparities between the highest and lowest-performing schools. However, a few standout schools, like Krystal School of Science, Math & Technology and Mesquite Trails Elementary, demonstrate stronger academic results compared to their peers.

Among the high schools, Sultana High stands out with a 3 out of 5 SchoolDigger star rating, the highest graduation rate (98.4%) and the lowest dropout rate (1.4%) in the district. In contrast, Canyon Ridge High has the lowest graduation rate (78.1%) and the highest dropout rate (19.4%) in the district. Chronic absenteeism is a significant issue across the Hesperia Unified district, with rates ranging from 18.7% at Krystal School of Science, Math & Technology to 78.6% at Hesperia Community Day.

The data suggests a correlation between socioeconomic status and academic outcomes, with the schools serving the highest proportions of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch generally performing the lowest on state assessments. Addressing these disparities and improving student attendance and engagement will be crucial for the district to raise overall academic achievement and provide equitable educational opportunities for all students.
