Summary
Slover Mountain High (Continuation) in Bloomington, CA, serves grades 9–12 and has 231 students. In 2025–26, about 51% of students were chronically absent, compared with 21% in Colton Joint Unified and 18% statewide; the school’s 75% graduation rate and 16% dropout rate also lagged district and state figures. The central concern is that very low test proficiency coincides with serious attendance and school-completion challenges.
Test results are weak compared with nearby schools, the district and the state. In 2025–26, about 8% of students were proficient in English language arts, 4% in math and 3% in science. Those results were below state rates by 42, 34 and 33 percentage points, respectively, and below district rates by 26, 16 and 16 points. Among eight nearby schools with scores, Slover ranked second-lowest in ELA, fourth-lowest in math and third-lowest in science; peer averages were 37%, 15% and 19%. Science was Slover’s strongest subject relative to the state, while ELA was its weakest compared with both the state and district.
Scores rose from 2024–25 to 2025–26, but longer-term progress is mixed: math increased from 0% in 2022–23 to 4%, ELA ended near its starting point at 8%, and science slipped from 4% to 3%. SchoolDigger rated the school at the 7th percentile with 0 stars in 2025–26, up from the 3rd percentile in 2023–24 but still near the bottom of the local group. One favorable point is its 12.5 students per teacher in 2024–25, the second-lowest ratio among 11 nearby schools. Also, 82% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–25, the third-lowest share among 11 schools with that measure. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves students in special education fell sharply: that group ranked at the 17th percentile in 2023–24, then the 3rd and 4th percentiles in the next two years, while the school overall ranked at the 3rd, 4th and 7th percentiles.
