High Schools in Healdsburg Unified

The Healdsburg Unified district operates two high schools, Healdsburg High (grades 9-12) and Marce Becerra Academy (grades 9-12), serving over 500 students in total, with the vast majority attending the main comprehensive high school.

Healdsburg High is a standout performer, ranking well above the state average with an exceptional 98.5% graduation rate, zero dropout rate, and particularly strong scores in English and science. In contrast, Marce Becerra Academy is a much smaller alternative school with significantly lower graduation rates and academic rankings, suggesting it serves a distinct student population with different needs.

The most pressing concern across the district is chronic absenteeism, which is high at Healdsburg High and at a critical level at Marce Becerra Academy. While the district's overall performance is strong, this is largely driven by Healdsburg High's success, highlighting a significant disparity in outcomes between the two schools within the same Healdsburg Unified system.
