El Dorado Union High


Summary:

The El Dorado Union High School District in California is home to 6 high schools, serving students in grades 9-12. The district's schools exhibit a wide range of academic performance, with some standouts like Oak Ridge High and Ponderosa High consistently ranking among the top high schools in the state, while others like Independence Continuation face challenges with low graduation rates and high chronic absenteeism.

The top-performing schools, Oak Ridge High and Ponderosa High, boast exceptional graduation rates, low dropout rates, and strong test scores that exceed district and state averages. Meanwhile, Pacific Crest Academy, a public charter virtual high school, also stands out with its top 5% statewide ranking, excellent test scores, and high graduation rate.

The data reveals a significant gap in performance between the high-performing and lower-performing schools, which may be linked to socioeconomic factors. Addressing these disparities and identifying successful strategies from the top-performing schools could help raise the overall quality of education across the district. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rates at some schools, particularly Independence Continuation, is a critical issue that needs to be addressed to improve student outcomes.
