Summary

Exeter Union High is a public high school serving about 900 students in grades 9-12 in Exeter, California, and it stands out as a consistently improving, high-performing school within the Exeter Unified district.

The school's greatest strengths are its near-perfect 99.5% graduation rate and its exceptional performance in English Language Arts, where over 74% of students are proficient—a rate significantly higher than the state average and well above nearby schools like Woodlake High, Lindsay Senior High, and Golden West High. The school also does an excellent job supporting student attendance, with a chronic absenteeism rate lower than both the state and most surrounding schools.

While math proficiency is an area for growth, the school achieves these strong outcomes very efficiently, spending less per student than comparable schools. It has shown remarkable improvement over the last several years, especially in supporting specific student groups, and its success is notable given the economic demographics it serves, outperforming other schools in the region with similar challenges.
