Summary:
The PUC Lakeview Charter High District in Sylmar, California, is a unique single-school district serving grades 9-12 exclusively through PUC Lakeview Charter High.
This school stands out for its exceptional success in supporting students through to graduation, achieving a perfect 100% graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, which are significantly better than state averages. It also demonstrates remarkable strength in English Language Arts, with student proficiency far exceeding the state average. The school has shown consistent improvement, climbing in statewide rankings over the past three years to place within the top 16% of all California high schools.
While the school excels in graduation outcomes and English, there is a noticeable performance gap in mathematics, where proficiency is slightly below the state average. The school serves a high-need population, with nearly 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, yet it achieves these strong results with a per-student spending level above the state average. A point of concern is a chronic absenteeism rate that is higher than the state average, making the school's success in graduation and test scores in some subjects particularly noteworthy.
