Summary
Valley High (Continuation) is a small grades 9–12 school in Dublin, California, with 36 students, in Dublin Unified. The area includes both comprehensive high schools and alternative programs; SchoolDigger ranks the district 72nd out of 968, at the 93rd percentile with five stars. In contrast, the school’s 2025–2026 results are low in all three tested subjects. The most important finding is that mathematics is the clearest academic weakness: 0% of students were proficient, compared with 38% statewide and 74% in the district.
English language arts is the school’s strongest subject by comparison, but its results remain far below nearby schools, the state and the district. The school scored 29% in English, versus 49% statewide and 78% in the district; its score was also below the nearby-school average of 67% and higher only than Village High at 21%. In science, the school scored 12%, compared with 36% statewide, 61% in the district and a nearby-school average of 56%; only Village High scored lower among nearby schools. Mathematics was below every nearby school’s reported result, with the next-lowest score, at Del Amigo High (Continuation), at 6%.
Two subjects improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: English rose from 8% to 29%, and science from 0% to 12%; math remained at 0%. SchoolDigger’s overall rating rose from the 2nd percentile in 2024–2025 to the 20th percentile in 2025–2026, but the school still has one star and ranks 1,714th of 2,137. Attendance is a major concern: chronic absenteeism was 84%, versus 18% statewide and 12% in the district. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was low at 6.9, while 47% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible—the highest nearby share with the same measure and year, compared with 42% at Village High. SchoolDigger’s male-student percentile fell from 26th in 2021–2022 to 2nd in 2024–2025, indicating very weak relative outcomes for that group; the school’s overall percentile was also 2nd that year. With 36 students and nearby schools of different types, results may be sensitive to a small number of students and comparisons are not perfectly like-for-like.
