Glendale Unified


Summary:

The Glendale Unified School District in California serves a diverse community with 31 schools, including 20 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The district demonstrates a wide range of academic performance, with several standout high-performing schools as well as some lower-performing campuses, particularly among the alternative and continuation high schools.

The top-performing schools in the district include Monte Vista Elementary, Valley View Elementary, and Anderson W. Clark Magnet High, which consistently rank among the best in the state. These schools demonstrate exceptional academic outcomes, with high proficiency rates, low chronic absenteeism, and strong graduation rates. In contrast, some of the district's alternative and continuation high schools, such as Daily (Allan F.) High (Continuation), struggle with much lower performance metrics.

The wide disparities in key metrics like graduation rates, dropout rates, chronic absenteeism, and test scores across the district suggest that there may be opportunities for the Glendale Unified School District to learn from its highest-performing schools and implement strategies to improve outcomes at its lower-performing campuses, ensuring a more equitable education for all students.
