Summary

Alpaugh -Senior High serves 96 students in grades 9–12 in Alpaugh, California. Its results show a striking contrast: the school had a 100% graduation rate in 2025–2026, but academic proficiency was low, especially in math. The most important academic concern is that just 6% of students were proficient in math, compared with 38% statewide.

Science is the school’s strongest subject relative to its benchmarks: 36% were proficient, about 0.4 percentage points above California, and above Alpaugh Unified (24%) and the nearby-school average (27%). The 11th-grade science result was stronger at 45%, while 12th-grade proficiency was 23%. ELA was 30% proficient—6 percentage points above the district, but 19 points below the state and 23 points below the nearby-school average. Math was also below the district by 9 points and nearby schools by 15 points. Only Valley High and Kings Lake Education Center had lower nearby math results, at 0%.

Results have improved from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026: ELA rose 13 percentage points, math 6 points, and science 31 points. ELA was uneven, reaching 50% in 2023–2024 before falling to 30%; math has improved but remains far behind the state. SchoolDigger places the school at the 41st percentile statewide, ranked 1,262 of 2,137, with 2 stars. Its Female Students subgroup ranks at the 23rd percentile, 18 points below the overall ranking, indicating a lower statewide SchoolDigger ranking for how well the school serves that group. The 2024–2025 student–teacher ratio was 14.1, and 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. Alpaugh enrolled 96 students, so percentages may reflect small numbers; the 2024–2025 all-grades science result was not supplied.
