Summary

Gateway High (Continuation) is a 215-student school serving grades 9–12 in Clovis, in Clovis Unified. In 2025–26, 32% of students were proficient in English language arts (ELA), 4% in math and 11% in science, below both the district and California in every subject; chronic absenteeism was 72%, compared with 18% statewide and 13% districtwide. The most important concern is that very low achievement across subjects coincides with exceptionally high chronic absenteeism.

ELA is Gateway’s strongest subject against state and district benchmarks, while math is weakest: Gateway trailed California by 18 percentage points in ELA, 34 in math and 25 in science, and trailed the district by 37, 51 and 42 points, respectively. The gap is also clear beside nearby schools: Gateway scored below all seven nearby 9–12 schools with current results, by 45 points in ELA, 42 in math and 42 in science compared with their averages. Even Herbert Hoover High, the lowest-scoring of those seven, had higher results in each subject. Clovis Community Day Secondary had lower proficiency than Gateway, but serves grades 7–12, making it a less direct comparison.

Results over time are mixed: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA proficiency rose 5 points and its gap with the state narrowed by 2 points, while math rose just 1 point and science fell 6 points; the state gaps widened in both subjects. SchoolDigger ranked Gateway 1,679th of 2,137 California schools, at the 21st percentile and one star. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 8.5, the second-lowest among nearby schools with data, and 79% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the third-highest rate among nine nearby schools; these figures are context, not explanations for results. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well Gateway serves Special Education Students rose sharply, from the 12th percentile in 2022–23 to the 77th in 2024–25, compared with the school’s overall 17th percentile that year. Its 2025–26 ranking for how well it serves White Students was notably lower, at the 3rd percentile versus the school’s overall 21st.
