Summary

William Workman High is a public high school serving about 723 students in grades 9-12 within the Hacienda la Puente Unified district, operating in a high-need community where most students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, the school sits in the middle of state rankings, showing improvement to a 3-star rating, but its test scores in core subjects like math and science are below state and district averages. A significant strength is its 92.4% graduation rate, which is strong and comparable to higher-performing schools like Glen A. Wilson High and Los Altos High in the same district, despite the proficiency gaps. However, the school faces a notable challenge with chronic student absenteeism, which is higher than at these peer schools.

The school receives more funding per student and has smaller class sizes than other comprehensive high schools in Hacienda la Puente Unified, yet these resource advantages have not led to top-tier academic results. Performance varies greatly for different student groups; support for English Learners is a standout strength, while serving students with disabilities is a significant area for improvement. When compared to schools with similar student demographics in other districts, such as Edgewood High or West Covina High, William Workman's academic performance is lower, indicating that factors beyond student need are influencing outcomes.
