Summary:
The Aromas - San Juan Unified school district has only one high school, Anzar High, which serves students in grades 9-12. Located in the small town of Aromas, this diverse school has a student population that is 67.39% Hispanic, 20.29% White, and 2.9% Asian.
Academically, Anzar High performs better than the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) and science proficiency, with 61.97% of 11th-graders proficient in ELA and 30.77% of 10th-graders proficient in science. However, the school struggles in mathematics, with only 20.29% of 11th-graders meeting proficiency standards, lower than the state average of 27.36%. The school's four-year graduation rate of 73.6% is also lower than the state average, and its dropout rate of 19.4% is higher.
Addressing the challenges at Anzar High will be crucial for the Aromas - San Juan Unified district. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.1% and large population of economically disadvantaged students, with 51.81% receiving free or reduced-price lunch, may be contributing factors to the lower graduation and higher dropout rates. Focusing on improving math instruction, addressing attendance issues, and providing targeted support for economically disadvantaged students could help Anzar High better serve its diverse student population.
