Summary

Nueva Vista Continuation High is a small public school in La Puente, part of the Bassett Unified district, serving about 46 students in grades 10-12 who have faced significant challenges in traditional high school settings.

The school faces profound challenges, most notably with chronic absenteeism, where over 72% of students miss a large amount of school, a rate far higher than nearby traditional schools like Bassett Senior High. Academic proficiency in core subjects is also very low compared to other area schools, despite the school having the highest per-student spending and one of the lowest student-teacher ratios in the region. However, the school's most recent graduation rate is a relative strength, exceeding the state average and showing the school can help students earn diplomas through alternative pathways.

When compared to other continuation schools, such as Fernando R. Ledesma Continuation High, Nueva Vista graduates a much higher percentage of its students. The data paints a complex picture of a school that is heavily resourced to serve a high-needs population, achieving success in graduation but continuing to struggle with fundamental issues of attendance and academic achievement that differentiate it from traditional high schools in the area.
