Summary

Dewolf Continuation High is a Fresno Unified school in Fresno, California, serving 182 students in grades 10–12. Its latest reported results show serious concerns across both learning and attendance: in 2025–2026, proficiency was about 5% in English, math and science, and chronic absenteeism reached 70%.

Dewolf was below Fresno Unified and California in all three subjects, and ranked second-lowest among nearby schools with reported scores; only Pershing Continuation High scored lower. The gaps were 35 percentage points below the district and 44 below the state in English, 24 and 33 points in math, and 19 and 31 points in science. Science was closest to district and state levels, while English had the largest state gap. Chronic absenteeism was also far higher than the district’s 27% and the state’s 18%. For contrast, nearby Fresno High had higher proficiency in all three subjects, even though 89% of its students were free/reduced lunch eligible, compared with 91% at Dewolf.

Results have shifted over time, but the academic gaps remain substantial: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, English proficiency fell 6 percentage points, math rose 5 points and science was nearly unchanged, increasing by less than 1 point. The state gap narrowed by 1 point in math but widened by 9 points in English and 6 in science. Chronic absenteeism rose 15 points from the prior year. Graduation was 78% in 2025–2026, down from 89% the year before, though it had risen 19 points since 2021–2022; the dropout rate fell 22 points over that longer span. SchoolDigger rated Dewolf 0 stars and placed it at the 7th percentile statewide in 2025–2026. Its 19.8 student–teacher ratio was around the middle of nearby schools, and its 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligibility was 9 percentage points above the nearby-school average; these are context, not explanations for its results.
