Summary

Kinney High (Continuation) is a small, alternative public high school serving about 112 students in grades 9-12 within the Folsom-Cordova Unified School District in Rancho Cordova, designed for students who have struggled in traditional school settings.

The school faces significant challenges, with academic proficiency far below state and district averages, including 0% proficiency in mathematics and only 6.5% in English. Critically, chronic absenteeism is exceptionally high at 88%, and only half of its students graduate, with a dropout rate over 40%. This is despite the school having a low student-teacher ratio and spending significantly more per student—over $44,000—than nearby traditional high schools like Cordova High or the state average.

It's important to note that other alternative schools in the region demonstrate that continuation education does not inherently lead to such outcomes. For example, Meraki High ranks in the state's top 10%, and El Sereno Alternative Education performs near the state average, suggesting the challenges at Kinney High may be specific to its model or student population. The school's performance has remained consistently low over time, placing it in the bottom 7th percentile of all California schools.
