Summary:

The Anderson Union High district consists of six schools serving grades 9-12 in a California community where many families face economic challenges.

Performance varies dramatically across the district. Anderson High is the top academic performer with strong test scores and a high graduation rate, while West Valley Early College High also shows promise with excellent graduation results. In contrast, North Valley High and Anderson Community Day face severe challenges, including very high chronic absenteeism and low graduation rates.

Key district-wide issues include chronic absenteeism that far exceeds the state average and mathematics proficiency that lags behind state benchmarks. The smaller alternative schools in the district, including Oakview High (Alternative) and Anderson New Technology High, show volatile performance from year to year, which is common for schools with smaller enrollments.
