Chino Valley Unified

The Chino Valley Unified School District in California serves a diverse population of students across 34 schools, including 22 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 7 high schools. The district is home to several standout schools, such as Ruben S. Ayala High School, which ranks 214th out of 2,335 California high schools and has a 5-star rating, and Canyon Hills Junior High, which ranks 180th out of 2,788 California middle schools and also has a 5-star rating.

The district's high schools generally have strong 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 92.4% at Chino High to 97.6% at Ruben S. Ayala High. Dropout rates are also low, with the highest rate at 4.9% for Chino High. However, the district's continuation and alternative schools, such as Buena Vista Continuation High, face significant challenges, with lower academic performance, higher chronic absenteeism, and lower graduation rates.

The data also reveals a correlation between schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and lower academic performance on standardized tests, highlighting the importance of addressing socioeconomic factors that may impact student learning. Additionally, the variation in performance across school levels suggests a need to closely examine the factors contributing to the differences between elementary, middle, and high schools in the district.
