Summary

Laguna Creek High serves 2,142 students in grades 9–12 in Elk Grove, within Elk Grove Unified. Its 2025–26 graduation rate was 91%, above the state’s 88% and the district’s 91%, while chronic absenteeism was 21%, higher than the state’s 18%. The clearest academic concern is math: proficiency was 33%, below both the state’s 38% and the district’s 44%.

Science is the school’s strongest comparison with nearby comprehensive high schools: 39% proficiency was about 6 points above their average, though it ranked fourth among seven schools. It also exceeded the state (36%) and district (37%). Math was about 2 points above the nearby-school average and ranked third of seven, so it is not the lowest among those peers despite trailing the state and district. ELA was 54%, 5 points above the state, nearly level with the district (about 54%), and fifth among seven nearby comprehensive schools.

Results have weakened over the longer term: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, ELA fell 10 points and math fell 4, while science slipped 1 point overall after a sharp dip and rebound. The school’s advantage over the state narrowed in ELA from 17 points to 5 and in science from 10 points to 3; math shifted from 2 points above the state to 6 below. SchoolDigger ranked the school at the 65th statewide percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, fourth among the 11 schools in the supplied comparison. Its student–teacher ratio was 21.4 in 2024–25; 51.9% were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, a reported eligibility measure despite California providing free meals statewide. SchoolDigger’s ranking for how well the school serves Asian students was notably lower than its overall standing: the group was at the 20th statewide percentile, compared with 65th overall. Its Hispanic-student percentile also fell from 76 in 2023–24 to 47 in 2025–26.
