Summary:

The Perris Union High School District includes eight high schools serving grades 9-12, ranging from large traditional campuses to smaller alternative programs, in an area where many families face economic challenges.

Academic performance varies significantly across the district. Liberty High and Paloma Valley High are the top performers, with graduation rates above 96% and English test scores exceeding the state average. California Military Institute stands out for its perfect 100% graduation rate. In contrast, Perris High and Heritage High have the lowest test scores among the comprehensive schools, while Perris Lake High (Continuation) faces severe challenges with very high absenteeism and dropout rates.

Key district-wide issues include chronic absenteeism, which is much higher than the state average, and very low math proficiency across all schools. There is no clear link between higher per-student spending and better outcomes. The data shows a wide gap in performance, with the district's overall ranking pulled down by its struggling schools despite having two campuses ranked in the top 35% statewide.
