Summary

North Valley High (Continuation) is a small grades 9–12 school in Orland, California, with 38 students, in Orland Joint Unified. Its most pressing concern is chronic absenteeism: in 2025–26, 73% of students were chronically absent, compared with 18% statewide and 14% districtwide—a gap of 55 points from the state and 59 points from the district.

Math is a relative strength compared with nearby schools, while English language arts (ELA) is a particular weakness. In 2025–26, 13% of students were proficient in each subject. ELA proficiency was 37 points below the state and 18 below the district; it was also 15 points below the nearby-school average of 27%. Math was 26 points below the state and 2 below the district, but 3 points above the nearby-school average of 9%. Its math result trailed Orland High, Willows High, and Hamilton High. The 2025–26 graduation rate was 85%, below the state’s 88% and district’s 95%, while the dropout rate was 15%, compared with 8% statewide and 3% districtwide. Science proficiency is suppressed, so it cannot be compared.

Recent results show improvement, but not a consistent recovery across measures. Math proficiency rose from 0% in each of the first three reported years to 13% in 2025–26; ELA rebounded from 0% in 2023–24 and 2024–25 to 13%, but remained below its 16% result in 2022–23. Absenteeism also eased, from 81% in 2021–22 to 73% in 2025–26. SchoolDigger rates the school 1 star, at the 20th percentile statewide for 2025–26, up from the 1st percentile in 2024–25. Its 2024–25 student–teacher ratio was 10.3, among the lowest nearby. Also as context, 92% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, the highest share among nearby schools reporting the same measure and year; this is an observation, not an explanation for results.
