Summary:
Coronado Unified School District contains one high school, Coronado High, serving grades 9-12 with nearly 1,000 students, and it stands as a consistently top-ranked institution within the Coronado Unified district and across California.
Coronado High is a standout performer, ranking in the 95th percentile of state high schools with exceptional graduation (97.3%) and remarkably low dropout (0.4%) rates that exceed both state and district averages. The school demonstrates particular strength in English Language Arts, where over 80% of students are proficient, and maintains strong science scores, though its mathematics proficiency, while above the state average, is an area where the high school slightly trails the broader Coronado Unified district average.
Notably, the school achieves these excellent outcomes with moderate per-student spending, indicating efficient operations, and benefits from high student engagement evidenced by a chronic absenteeism rate well below the state average. For families, Coronado High offers a model of consistent academic excellence, robust student support systems, and a learning environment that successfully prepares the vast majority of its students for graduation.
