Summary:
The River Islands High District in Lathrop, CA, is a single-school district serving grades 9-12 at River Islands High, which has an enrollment of 512 students.
River Islands High shows a mixed academic profile with clear strengths and areas for growth. The school performs notably well in English Language Arts, exceeding the state average, and has a significantly better chronic absenteeism rate than the state. Its performance in 11th-grade mathematics also surpasses the state average, which is a standout achievement. However, the school's overall mathematics proficiency is below the state level, and science scores are its most significant challenge, falling nearly ten points behind the state average.

Its 3-star rating and ranking in the 63rd percentile of California high schools position it as an average performer with clear potential. The most immediate opportunity for improvement lies in strengthening science instruction, while the school can build on its successes in promoting good attendance and effective English literacy education.
