Summary:
The Valley International Preparatory High District is a unique, single-school district in California serving grades 9 through 12 at its only institution, Valley International Preparatory High, which enrolls 259 students.
Valley International Preparatory High is a standout high school, consistently ranking in the top 15% of all California schools. It excels particularly in keeping students engaged and on track to graduate, with a 93.2% graduation rate and a remarkably low 1.4% dropout rate, both significantly better than state averages. Student attendance is also strong, with chronic absenteeism lower than the state norm. The school demonstrates exceptional strength in English Language Arts, where over 83% of students are proficient, far outpacing the state average.
While the school's overall performance is high, there is a noticeable difference between subject areas; math and science proficiency rates, though near or above state averages, are more modest compared to its stellar ELA results. The school serves a student population where about one-third qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, yet it achieves outcomes typical of more affluent areas, suggesting effective support systems. With a student-teacher ratio of 14.3-to-1 and per-student spending above $16,000, the district's focused resources on this single school appear to be yielding efficient and strong results for its students.
