Summary

Inderkum High is a large public high school serving grades 9-12 to approximately 2,200 students in the Natomas Unified district of Sacramento, performing around the middle compared to other California high schools.

The school has clear strengths, most notably its excellent graduation rate of over 95%, which is among the best in the area and well above the state average. It also does a good job managing chronic student absenteeism, with a rate better than both the district and state. In English Language Arts, student proficiency exceeds local and state averages. However, the school faces challenges in mathematics and science, where proficiency scores lag behind state benchmarks. Performance has also been variable in recent years, with the school's statewide ranking showing some fluctuation.

Compared to other schools in Natomas Unified, Inderkum sits in the middle: it outperforms the district's other comprehensive high school, Natomas High, but trails specialized programs like Natomas Pacific Pathways Prep and Leroy Greene Academy. It achieves its strong graduation and attendance outcomes while spending less per student than several nearby high schools in other districts, such as Rio Linda High and Grant Union High. The school has shown notable success with English Language Learner students but has significant room for improvement in supporting other specific student groups.
