Summary

Reid High is a very small, non-traditional high school in the Long Beach Unified district, serving only about 50 students in grades 11 and 12 as an alternative education program.

The school serves students facing significant academic challenges, which is reflected in its state ranking in the bottom 12th percentile and key metrics: it reports 0% proficiency in English and Math, a 98.2% chronic absenteeism rate, and a 37.3% graduation rate, all of which are dramatically lower than nearby comprehensive high schools like Millikan High or Wilson High. With a very low student-teacher ratio of 7-to-1 and exceptionally high per-student spending of $36,500—nearly double that of other district schools—the data suggests Reid High functions as an intensive, last-chance intervention for students at extreme risk of not graduating.

When compared to other alternative programs in the area, Reid High's outcomes raise questions about the effectiveness of its high-cost model; for instance, Richard D. Browning High, which serves a similar student population, reports a 98.2% graduation rate with lower per-student spending. The school's performance has remained consistently low for years, with data showing particularly dire outcomes for female students, warranting a closer look at whether the program meets all students' needs.
