High Schools in Lakeport Unified

Lakeport Unified School District serves high school students in Lake County, California, with two distinct schools: Clear Lake High, the main comprehensive high school, and Natural High (Continuation), a smaller school designed to support at-risk students.

Both schools in the Lakeport Unified district achieve exceptionally high graduation rates, well above the state average, which is a significant strength. However, their standardized test scores in English and Science are generally below state averages. A notable exception is mathematics at Natural High, where students outperform both the district and state. In contrast, Clear Lake High faces a challenge with chronic student absenteeism, a rate much higher than at the continuation school.

For parents, the key takeaway is that the district provides strong support for students to graduate, but academic proficiency varies. Clear Lake High offers the traditional high school experience for most students, while Natural High (Continuation) demonstrates remarkable success in graduating students and maintaining attendance in a specialized setting. The district's rankings have shown some fluctuation in recent years.
