Summary:

The Anaheim Union High district serves about 23,000 students across 21 schools in Orange County, California, spanning grades 7 through 12, and features a wide range of school performance from some of the state's best to those needing significant support.

Standout high schools include the exceptional Oxford Academy, ranked 5th in the state, along with other strong performers like Cypress High and John F. Kennedy High, which boast high graduation rates and solid test scores. In contrast, the district's middle schools generally face greater academic challenges, with several, such as Sycamore Junior High and South Junior High, ranking in the state's lower percentiles.

Key takeaways for parents are the extreme performance differences within the district, the particular struggle with math proficiency across most schools, and the strong link between chronic absenteeism and lower outcomes. While the district's overall graduation rate is high, chronic absenteeism is above the state average, and per-student spending varies widely without a clear connection to academic success, making it important to look at individual school data closely.
