Summary

Delhi High is a public high school serving 710 students in grades 9-12 within the Delhi Unified district, which ranks in the 35th percentile among all California districts.

The school has a clear and significant strength: it graduates its students. With a 100% graduation rate and 0% dropout rate, it far exceeds the state average and outperforms nearby schools like Roselawn High and Fusion Charter. It also maintains lower chronic absenteeism than many comparable schools, such as Livingston High and Denair High. The school spends significantly more per student—over $23,800—than neighboring high schools like Atwater High and Hilmar High, and has a favorable student-teacher ratio.

However, academic proficiency, especially in math and science, remains a major challenge, with scores well below state averages. This creates a paradox where high spending and strong support for keeping students in school have not yet translated to high standardized test scores. Its performance in English Language Arts is more competitive with local schools, but math scores are critically low. The school's statewide ranking has declined over the past decade to the 38th percentile, indicating it is an area needing focused improvement despite the school's clear successes in student retention and graduation.
