High Schools in Morgan Hill Unified

The Morgan Hill Unified district operates three high schools serving grades 9-12: two comprehensive high schools, Ann Sobrato High and Live Oak High, and the alternative Central High (Continuation).

Ann Sobrato High stands out as the district's top performer, ranking in the 84th percentile statewide with a 98% graduation rate and the strongest test scores, particularly in English. Live Oak High is a solid choice, performing near state averages with a graduation rate matching the district's strong 95.5% average. Central High (Continuation) serves a distinct role, providing an alternative pathway for students needing extra support and still achieving an 80% graduation rate for its specialized population.

Overall, the district's high school graduation rate exceeds the state average. A noticeable performance gap exists between the two comprehensive schools, with Ann Sobrato consistently outperforming Live Oak in academic rankings and test proficiency, especially in mathematics, which is a relative challenge for both. The data shows a clear correlation between economic disadvantage, measured by free/reduced lunch eligibility, and academic outcomes across the three schools.
