Summary

Maple High is a small public high school serving 135 students in grades 9-12 within the Lompoc Unified school district, which ranks in the bottom quartile of districts statewide.

Academically, Maple High faces significant challenges, ranking among the lowest-performing schools in California with proficiency rates far below state averages in all core subjects. A critical issue is an extremely high chronic absenteeism rate of 71.4%, which is more than triple the rate at other local high schools like Lompoc High (22.9%) and Cabrillo High (25.7%). Interestingly, the school spends significantly more per student and has a lower student-teacher ratio than these nearby schools, yet its academic outcomes are dramatically lower, creating a notable resource-performance paradox.

Despite these academic struggles, Maple High's graduation rate has improved notably in recent years and is now close to the state average. The school serves a student population with high economic need, and its small size could allow for more personalized attention if systemic barriers to attendance and engagement are addressed. For context, Delta High, a similar small, high-needs school in a neighboring district, performs somewhat better academically and has a lower chronic absenteeism rate.
