Summary

Kings Canyon Continuation is a small public high school serving 141 students in grades 9–12 in Dinuba, within Kings Canyon Joint Unified. Its reported 2025–2026 graduation rate was 100%, compared with 96% for the district and 88% statewide, but chronic absenteeism was 33%, well above the district’s 8% and the state’s 18%. The most important academic concern is math: just 8% of students were proficient, compared with 38% statewide and 46% in the district.

The school’s strongest result relative to the state is ELA: 53% were proficient, 4 percentage points above the state average, though 4 points below the district average. That result was also 3 points above the nearby-school average, placing the school sixth among nine with reported scores. Science proficiency was 30%, below the state by 6 points and the district by 4, but 4 points above the nearby-school average; it ranked third of nine nearby schools. Math was also below the nearby-school average of 24% by 16 points and ranked seventh of nine. So the results are not uniformly weak, but math is a clear area of concern.

Results have improved overall since 2022–2023, though they have fluctuated: ELA rose 23 percentage points and science rose 20, while math increased by 6 points. The latest results helped lift the SchoolDigger ranking to the 42nd percentile and 2 stars in 2025–2026, up 27 percentile points from the prior year. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 9.6:1, among the lowest nearby, and 94% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s statewide measure of how well the school serves Hispanic students rose to the 55th percentile in 2025–2026, from the 16th percentile the year before; the school’s overall ranking was at the 42nd percentile.
